How do I connect Notes to a Domino server over the internet?
When I run the Client Reconfiguration Wizard and enter the name of the domino server server/domain, click next, select TCP/IP, enter server address as www.domain.net, click next I receive an error message that the server is not responding.
Subject: Are you using the Notes client?
If you’re using the Notes client over TCP/IP to connect to a Domino server you need to input the server address in hierarchical format i.e. Server/ou/organization.
Subject: Yes, and the Admin client
Unfortuately, I’m not completely sure what you mean. I’ve seen this form on the server and tried manipulations of this form in the Server Name and Server Address files to no avail.
I am able to connect to the server using the web admin interface and the administrator login.
Also if I do Trace from the client:

Subject: Try using the IP Address . . .
. . instead of the server name.Ctrl-O and type in the public IP address of the server in the server name field and click on Open.
If it connects, then the problem you have requires a connection document in your address book. If it does not, you have a firewall issue (port 1352 is not open most likely).
If you need to create a connection document, refer to Administrator Help
