  - Configuring Web servers
    This section describes how to set up the HCL Domino® Web server, and the Domino Web Navigator.
    - The Domino® Web server
      Domino® provides an integrated Web application server that can host Web sites that both Internet and intranet clients can access, and that can serve up pages that are stored in the file system or in a Domino database.
    - The Web Navigator
      The Web Navigator lets Notes® workstations access the Web, without having a direct connection to the Internet. The Web Navigator server, which has a direct connection to the Internet, retrieves pages for users. The Web Navigator retrieves pages on Internet servers -- for example, servers that use Internet services such as HTTP, FTP, or Gopher.
      - Setting up a Web Navigator server
        The first time you start the Web task, Domino® creates the Web Navigator database (WEB.NSF) and enters default settings for the Web Navigator database.
      - Customizing the Web Navigator
        After you set up the Web Navigator on a server, you can customize it.
      - The Web Navigator database
        The Web Navigator database (WEB.NSF) resides on the Web Navigator server and stores all pages that users retrieve from Web sites. Storing Web pages in a central database reduces connection costs, since after one user retrieves a page, the page is available in the database for others to browse.
      - Customizing the Web Navigator database
        You can customize the Web Navigator database in a number of different ways.
        Displaying who retrieved a page in the Web Navigator database
        By default, the Web Navigator database uses a view named ($All) to display information about each page that users retrieve. However, this view does not display the name of the user who retrieved a particular page.
        Customizing the default appearance of pages in the Web Navigator database
        Web page authors use HTML tags to specify elements of a Web page. The Web Navigator interprets these tags to determine how to display these elements. You can customize the default appearance of many elements on retrieved Web pages.
        Saving and viewing HTML sources in the Web Navigator database
        You can save and view the HTML source for a Web page. Domino® saves the source in the Body field in the Web Navigator database.
        Renaming and moving the Web Navigator database
        You can rename or move the Domino® Web Navigator database.
        Setting agent preferences for the Web Navigator
        The Web Navigator database includes three agents -- Purge, Refresh, and Averaging -- that help you manage the database. Before you use the agents, set up the preferences for them in the Server document for the server on which the Web Navigator runs. You can specify agent security, execution time, and schedule.
        Using the Purge agent to manage the size of the Web Navigator database
        As users open Web pages, the Web Navigator database gets larger. To manage the database, use the Purge agent. The Purge agent uses settings in the Web Navigator Administration document, which is in the Web Navigator database (WEB.NSF), to determine what and how much to purge. Each night at 1 AM, the Purge agent goes through the database three times, each time purging documents according to the criteria you specify. As soon as the database size you specify is obtained, the Purge agent stops and queues to run the following night.
        Using the Refresh agent to update pages in the Web Navigator database
        To keep the most up-to-date pages in the Web Navigator database, use the Refresh agent, which compares the date of each Web page inside the database with the date of the Web page on the server. If the Web page on the server is newer, the Refresh agent replaces the Web page in the Web Navigator database. By refreshing out-of-date pages, the Refresh agent ensures that users can quickly access the latest version of a page. You can refresh pages using the Refresh agent or set an interval for the update cache.
        Using the Averaging agent to calculate page ratings in the Web Navigator database
        The Averaging agent collects ratings that users assign to Web pages and calculates the rating of pages in the Web Navigator database (WEB.NSF). The pages appear in the Recommended by Top Ratings view in the database. The Averaging agent also calculates the average rating for pages that have multiple ratings from different users.
  - Setting up a cluster
    Setting up a cluster includes the tasks of creating and verifying that it is working correctly, and then setting up user access, mail, replications, size quotas, directory assistance, roaming, web navigation, and use of a private LAN in the cluster.
- Securing
  This section describes security features, including execution control lists, IDs, and SSL.
- Administering
  This documentation provides information about the administration tools for managing and monitoring servers and databases.
- Tuning
  Use this information to improve HCL Domino® server, Domino Web server, and messaging performance through the use of resource balancing and activity trends, Server.Load commands, advanced database properties, cluster statistics, and the Server Health Monitor.
- Troubleshooting
  This section describes how to find and solve problems with HCL Domino® server and Administrator client.
