Domino 8 Micragtion / upgrade

Hello,Quick scenario:

I have been put in charge of our Domino Server and the current version is 6.5.4. and I will be installing Version 8.0.1. and Sametime 8. I have replicated my domain in a lab environemnt. I installed a new server W2K3 R2 SP2, I installed Domino server 8.0.1. From my current server, I copied over all user nsf files, and the names.nsf. When I configured the new server, I used the current admin.id, server.id and cert.id, I have also copied over the certlog.nsf files. The servers seems to be running without any apparent errors. I then installed a second Domino server and added the sametime server to it. And all works fine on my client sides.

Now I am trying to Add mail policy settings and I am getting a Not authorized error. I am logged in to the Domino administrator with the admin.id. Is there some files that I might of missed or do I need to configure extra settings on the server to have the rights ?

Thanks for the help.

Just curious. Why 8.0.1 and not 8.0.2?

Subject: Why ?

It’s what I had downloaded from IBM when we started thinking of doing this upgrade. Do you recommend that I get version 8.0.2 ?

Also, I found what I needed to do to be able to create that document. So now, I can start the new document, and once I am done and click save & close, I get the following error:

Cannot store document - database has too many unique field names. Please set the ‘Allow more fields in database’ option or ask your administrator to compact the database.

Did I do the process right of installing the serverz and importing the proper files ?

Thanks again
