Registering an Organization Certifier ID

The registration server is the server that initially stores the Certifier document until the Domino® Directory replicates. You can change it.

Procedure

  1. Click Registration Server, select the correct server, and then click OK. If you have not specified a registration server in Administration Preferences, the registration server is by default:
    • The local server, if there is one and it contains a Domino® Directory
    • The server specified in the NewUserServer setting in the NOTES.INI file
    • The Administration server
  2. Click Set ID file to change the location where Domino® stores the certifier ID. Be sure to keep the certifier ID file in a secure place so that it is readily accessible to register new servers and users, but safe from misuse. By default, the ID is stored in C:\.
  3. Complete these fields:
    Table 1. ID file options

    Field

    Enter

    Organization name

    The name of the organization. Enter a name different from the one used on the organization certifier ID created when you set up the first Domino® server.

    Country Code

    The country code for the organization.

    Certifier Password

    A case-sensitive password for the certifier. The characters you use for this password depend on the level set in Password Quality Scale.

    Each time you use the certifier ID, Domino® prompts for the password.

    Password Quality Scale

    Level of complexity and variety of characters entered for the password. Domino® sets the default value to 10, which is the highest.

    Security type

    Select either North American (the default) or International. In practice, there is no difference between a North American and an International certifier.

    Mail certification requests to (Administrator)

    The name of the administrator who handles re-certification requests. The name specified here appears in the Certifier document in the Domino® Directory. If you are creating a certifier ID for an off-site administrator, enter that administrator's name in this field.

    Location

    Text that appears in the Location field of the Certifier document.

    Comment

    (Optional) Text that appears in the Comment field of the Certifier document.
