Lotus Encryption Keys Error

Hello,

I have been assigned the tasks to install Lotus Domino 8.0 in our test environment to see how it works.

I am having issues when creating a new secret key in Lotus Administrator. Previously, I have never had issues with this using Lotus Domino 7.

When I create the secret key in Lotus Administrator 8, strange characters appear next to the Creation date field right next to the date.

In Lotus Administrator 7 this does not happen. I was thinking is this a bug with the Lotus Administrator 8 ?

I say this because we I try to decrypt a database that has been encrypted with this key, Domino generates an error and tells me that I do not have the correct keys.

However, this is not correct, because I specify the correct keys. As I have mentioned, this all works fine in Lotus Domino 7. Is there something different with version 8 ? Are those strange characters next to the creation date of the secret key I created meant to be there?

Thank you,

Marco

Are you choosing AES or RC2? If AES, it will only work for 8.0.1 or later, so make sure you are not doing any testing with earlier clients.
