Creating a Terminations group with the Domino® Administrator or Web Administrator
About this task
You may want to create a group for employees who no longer have access to specific servers in your organization. When you are deleting a person from the Domino® Directory, you can then add that person's name to a Terminations group that is assigned a group type of Deny List Only. This is particularly useful for preventing terminated employees from accessing servers.
Procedure
- Create a group named Terminations,
for example, and assign it a group type of Deny List Only.
Note: Groups of the type Deny List Only do not have to be named Terminations; assign any name that you choose. The name Terminations is suggested for clarity.
- From the Domino® Administrator or Web Administrator, follow instructions for deleting a user name, but in the Delete Person dialog box, locate the Add deleted user to Deny Access Group field and then click Groups.
- Continue the delete process as usual, and then click OK.
