Because you will run the Notes Gateway on a machine other than the Notes/Domino server, the user you just created in Registering the Notes Gateway As a Notes User needs appropriate access to the Notes/Domino server and Notes databases.
When you start the Notes Gateway for the first time, it creates a Notes secondary Address Book (wpnames.nsf) on the Notes/Domino server that contains the addressing information from the GroupWise Address Book. It also creates a gateway mail file (notesgateway.nsf) that is used for communication between the two systems. You need to provide the Notes Gateway user with the type of access it needs to perform these tasks.
Run the Notes/Domino Administrator as a user with Manager access to Notes databases (worksheet item 11).
Open the Notes public Address Book:
On the Servers menu, select the Notes/Domino server that will communicate with the Notes Gateway.
On the Server Tools menu, select Server, then select Current Server Document.
Click Edit Server.
In the Administrator field, click the drop-down list.
Select the Notes Gateway user (worksheet item 11), click Add, then click OK.
Click Security.
In the Create New Databases field, click the drop-down list.
Select the Notes Gateway user (worksheet item 11), click Add, then click OK.
The Notes Gateway creates the wpnames.nsf file and the gateway mail file one time only. This means that you can change the access rights of the Notes Gateway user after these databases have been created.
Click Save and Close.
Continue with Providing Access to Notes Databases
During operation, the Notes Gateway requires access to various Notes databases that already exist in your Notes system. Ensure that the gateway has the required access to the following Notes databases:
Database | Access | Description |
---|---|---|
Editor or Manager |
The Notes public Address Book. For instructions to set rights, see Providing Access Rights to the Public Address Book |
|
Manager or Editor |
The GroupWise secondary Address Book containing all GroupWise users; you will not be able to grant this access until after the database has been created or you have copied it from the domain\wpgate\notes directory. |
|
Manager or Editor |
The gateway mail file you specified in the Gateway Mail File Name field (worksheet item 11) when defining the GroupWise system as a Notes foreign domain. See Defining the GroupWise System As a Notes Foreign Domain. |
In the Notes/Domino Administrator, open the Notes public Address Book:
Click File > Database > Access Control to display the Access Control List.
Click Add.
Click the Person icon, select the Notes Gateway user (worksheet item 11), click Add, then click OK.
From the User Type drop-down list in the Access Control List, select Person.
From the Access drop-down list, select Manager or Editor.
Click OK.
Continue with Starting the Notes Client on the Notes Gateway Machine
