This topic describes connections to servers, ways to connect to servers, and things you should know before setting up a server connection.
- Getting started with Locations and Accounts
  When connecting to servers, Notes® uses Location documents and Account documents to configure those connections. A Location document contains information that Notes needs, in order to manage your connections whenever you change the way you're connecting to servers; for example, your Home location may use remote access software in your operating system to dial your Internet server, while your Online location assumes that you're connected to a LAN. An Account document contains information, such as user name and password, for an Internet connection such as Internet mail.
- Locations and Accounts quick reference
  This quick reference card is a list of instructions for common tasks and shortcuts for Notes locations and accounts , which you can print and keep at your desk for easy reference.
- Working with Locations, Accounts, and Connections
  You set preferences for your Location, Account, and Connection documents that provide the information needed by components to connect to servers. Preferences enable you to create, edit, or delete certain Location, Account, or Connection documents.

  - What are the options for editing Connection documents manually?
    In a Connection document, you can click the Advanced tab and specify additional server connection options.
  - How can I customize location settings?
    You can click the Advanced tab in a Location document and customize the location you are editing, for example to use a different User ID from other locations, allow multiple users for Contacts, use different bookmarks or subscriptions, or manage Web retrievals and Java™ applet security differently.
  - How can I enable Java applets in Notes?
    HCL Notes® lets you run Java™ applets -- simple programs added to many Web pages to create interesting effects. To run a Java applet, the Web page's server must access your system, which can present a security problem. You can give access to Java applets on a server-by-server basis. This method of access control works well in a corporate intranet where you want to give open access to internal servers while limiting access to external servers.
  - Sharing a computer with other users
    Notes® multi-user installation and the Notes roaming feature complement each other. If you want to share a computer with other users in your organization, ask your administrator which computers have Notes multi-user installed on them.

  - How can I use iNotes® to access Notes® mail using a browser?
    If your administrator sets up your HCL Notes® mail to use HCL iNotes®, you can read and work with Notes messages using a Web browser in addition to, or instead of, the Notes client software.

Note: The more retrievers you have working concurrently, the more computer memory you use. This could significantly slow down the time it takes to download pages.

From the menu, click File > Location > Edit Current Location.
Click the Advanced tab, then click the Web Retriever tab.
