Welcome to the HCL Domino 11.0.1 documentation
Welcome to the HCL Domino® 11.0.1 documentation. Here administrators can find information about planning, installing, configuring, and administering Domino 11.0.1.
Configuring
Use this information to configure your network, users, servers (including Web servers), directory services, security, messaging, widgets and live text, and server clusters.
Configuring Web servers
This section describes how to set up the HCL Domino® Web server, and the Domino Web Navigator.
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.
Setting up users to use the Web Navigator
You can use a policy to specify the Web Navigator as the Internet browser for users affected by the policy.

- What's new in Domino® 11?
  Learn about all of the new features for administrators in HCL Domino® 11.
- Overview
  Welcome to HCL Domino® Administrator Help.
- Domino trial
  A trial version of HCL Domino® 11.0.1 is available free of charge.
- Installing
  Use this documentation to install the HCL Domino® server and subsequently deploy the HCL Notes®client.
- Planning
  Use this topic as an overview of planning task.
- Configuring
  Use this information to configure your network, users, servers (including Web servers), directory services, security, messaging, widgets and live text, and server clusters.
  - Configuring a network
    This section presents the planning concepts and setup procedures necessary for a successful HCL Domino® deployment over a network. It provides information on network protocols from a Domino perspective but does not attempt to provide general network information.
  - Configuring users and servers
    Topics in this section describe how to set up users and servers.
  - Editing the NOTES.INI file
    You should rarely, if ever, need to modify a server's or client's NOTES.INI file. The NOTES.INI file contains many settings that Domino® and Notes® rely on to work properly. An accidental or incorrect change may cause Domino or Notes to run unpredictably. Therefore, you should edit the NOTES.INI file only if special circumstances occur or if Support recommends that you do so.
  - Configuring directory services
    This section describes how to plan, set up, and use HCL Domino® directory services.
  - Configuring messaging
    This section provides an overview of messaging and describes how to set up mail routing, how to set up and customize mail servers, and how to track mail.
  - Configuring iNotes®
    HCL iNotes® provides HCL Notes® users with browser-based access to Notes mail and to Notes calendar and scheduling features. Administrators specify mail policy and security policy settings as well as notes.ini file settings to complete the full implementation of HCL iNotes.
  - 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.
        Starting and stopping the Web Navigator program
        You can start and stop the Domino® Web Navigator using a manual or automatic procedure.
        Using a proxy server to connect the Web Navigator to the Internet
        You can set up the Web Navigator to connect to the Internet through a proxy server instead of using an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to connect directly to the Internet. If you don't specify a proxy, you must use a direct Internet connection to access the Internet.
        Setting up users to use the Web Navigator
        You can use a policy to specify the Web Navigator as the Internet browser for users affected by the policy.
      - 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.
  - 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.

Setting up users to use the Web Navigator

You can use a policy to specify the Web Navigator as the Internet browser for users affected by the policy.

About this task

If you are setting up users using a policy, you can specify the browser setting as the default for all users or groups.

Procedure

From the Domino® Administrator, click the People & Groups tab, and open the Settings view.
2. Add or edit a Desktop Policy Settings document.
3. On the Basics tab, under Browser Options, enter Notes® as the Internet browser.
Specify the location from which to run the web retriever process.

To allow users to access private Web pages

About this task

When users fill out forms on the Web or pages from Internet servers to which users authenticate, the Web Navigator encrypts those pages with the user's public key and stores the pages in private folders in the Web Navigator database.

To ensure that the Web Navigator can encrypt these private pages, be sure that users' public keys exist in the Person documents in the Domino® Directory on the server. Domino® automatically adds the user's public key to the Person document when you register the user.
