I lost manager access to my mail file

I’ve lost manager access to my mail file. Before there was myself and LocalDomainServers on the access list. I now somehow have reader access to my mail file. But now that I’ve lost manager access I can no longer set any permission on my own mail file. I have tried to create new public key and cross certify with old ids. But it does not help, I just cannot regain manager access to my mail file. How do I get back my manager access to my mail file???

If you are an administrator, have you tried Full Access Administration via the Domino Administrator?

.with Full Access Administrator, you should be able to get the ACL fixed again. If you’re no administrator, contact someone who is and have him/her fix it.

My name is in the FULL Access administrator, but I still cannot fix it up. Besides I cannot invisibly access any database like stated. Whenever I access any mail files, it would give “You are not authorised to access that database”. I am using Domino 6.3

Full access administration is only available through the Administrator client. Open the server, click on Administration>Full access administration in the main menu, then go to the files tab and open/modify the database from there.

Your administrator should be able to change the access for you.

If only the server has Manager access, one solution is to create an agent in a local database on your computer. Sign it with the server’s ID. Then switch to another ID and make a copy of the database on to the server. The agent will run and update the ACL, since it’s signed by the server ID.

Sub Initialize

Call UpdateDatabase( "log.nsf", "ADMIN" )

End Sub

Sub UpdateDatabase( filepath As String, username As String )

Dim mailbox As New NotesDatabase( "", filepath )

If (mailbox Is Nothing) Then Exit Sub

If (mailbox.IsOpen) Then

	Call mailbox.GrantAccess( username, ACLLEVEL_MANAGER )

End If

End Sub
