I need your experience regarding silent installation and unattended user setup in Lotus-Notes 8.5
My goal is to do a Lotus Notes 8.5 “First-Time-Setup” without any user interaction.
-
At fist time start up of Lotus Notes 8.5 the Client should come up automatically without any prompt.
-
Instant Messaging should also login automatically using client SSO (Token based single sign on)
In R7 it works very well
I create an mst file and add some notes.ini parameters as you see below:
My Notes.ini before Lotus-Notes first time Setup
[Notes]
ConfigFile=C:\lotus\notes\data\config.txt
IM_USE_CANONICAL_NAME=1
IM_ENABLE_SSO=1
KitType=1
Directory=C:\lotus\notes\data
InstallType=6
My config.txt file looks like this:
Username=USERID
Keyfilename=c:\lotus\notes\data\USERID.id
Domino.Name=MyHome/Server
Domino.Address=MyHome.serer.dns.name.com
Domino.Port=TCPIP
Domino.Server=1
AdditionalServices=0
AdditionalServices.NetworkDial=0
Replication.Threshold=9999
Replication.Schedule=0
IM.Server=MySametime/Server
IM.Port=1533
IM.ConnectWhen=0
IM.Protocol=0
Using this information Notes R7 and IM starts up first time without any prompt.
But i despair in Lotus Notes 8.5
The First-Time Setup works well, without any prompt. But IM will not login automatically.
In Lotus Notes 8.5 i have to setup manually IM (Server Communities, Authentication server, Use token based single sign on, automatically login and other settings)
How can i prepare the config file or the notes.ini or what ever that IM logs in automatically using client SSO during First-Time setup ?
Seems that the config file variables are changed ?
Please push me in the right direction
Best regards
Dominik
