ID file management

Hi All,

ID file management bit hard as it grows in no.

Firstly storing ID’s in the Domino Directory is a bad idea as READER access default for all that use it. Meaning that they can get access and save ID’s to anywhere. If you have a default password for newly created ID this will mean all ID’s will be the same. Security would be hugely effected.

Have you turned on ID backup and Recovery?

taken from Admin Help

"Preparing IDs for recovery

After you specify recovery information in the certifier ID, when you register users, the user IDs automatically contain recovery information. However, if you specified recovery information after generating user IDs, users must update their user IDs with recovery information supplied by the administrator. Updating IDs with recovery information automatically sends an encrypted backup of the user ID to the centralized mail or mail-in database.

There are two ways that users can update their user IDs with recovery information:

(Only for servers using the server-based certification authority) Users authenticate to their home server after an administrator has added recovery information to the certifier. The recovery information is automatically added to their Notes ID.

The administrator sends recovery information to users to incorporate into their user IDs. You must complete these steps before a user loses or damages an ID or forgets a password."

This will give you the ability to store ID information (safe form) and the changes done to them (renames, person keys etc). These can be added to a Domino database for safe keeping. Only an administraor with recover ID authorisation can reclaim these ID’s. Security is better.

There are also Domino policy information that can be used for force password size and change intervals etc.

Was this what you were after?
