I have one Domino Server connected to internet, with SMTP/HTTP service, and other mail servers with no access to internet.
How can I configure Domino to enable users to access via internet to those mail servers with no internet connection.
Thanks.

Look into using passthru connections. Admin help has a pretty good information on this.

Thanks Alexandr for your response, but i think passthru connections does not work with HTTP clients (inotes).
Anyway i will read the admin help.

Ah. I must have misunderstood your question. I thought you wanted users with Notes clients to be able to hit your other servers.You’re right, passthru doesn’t work for HTTP clients. Your best bet is setting up a dedicated iNotes server and replicating mail databases for users who need iNotes access.

Replicating the mail databases is an option.
I want to configure the Web Mail Redirect DB that come with Domino 6.5, but i dont know if it works for different servers. Also I believe i have to configure SSO.
Subject: RE: Mail Internet Access to different servers
Yes, you can use the domino redirect database for this. Make sure on server set up, set the redirection type as Mail Server. Under valid Domain for your mail server, hopefully it will put it down as your current domain without the www. (example, yourcompany.com). Have your webmail server for www.yourcompany.com, to point to the domino redirect database, where we ask the user to log in with their name and internet password. This looks into the name and address book and finds the name of your mail file and the name of your server. It takes the name of the server (ie-mail01/company), and places it at the beginning of what the current domain is), as mail01.yourcompany.com. What you need to do is get the mail servers all registered with the external ips of those servers.
Yes you should set up SSO for these servers, or you will be prompted to log in to each server when it ‘jumps’, that is relatively easy. Under Internet Sites click on 'Create Web SSO Configuration, I keep the default name of LtpaToken, Organization I left blank, and DNS Domain we put in .yourcompany.com. Put in any expiration time you need. In the participating servers, put in all the mail files that you want to not have to enter in the password when jumping from/to. If you are looking for that document, it isn’t under internet sites, where you clicked the button from, but is now under server/web configurations, if you need to make changes.
Now, you need to go into all of your mail servers that need single sign on. Go to The internet protocols tab, and Domino Web Engine tab. Under session authentication, switch this to Single Sign on, and under web SSO configuration, pick the LTPAToken you created.
Hopefully that will point you in the right direction.

Hi Greg, thanks for your response.
In your solution you mean that all my mail servers need an external IP?
Actually, only 1 server (SMTP) has an external IP.
Subject: RE: Mail Internet Access to different servers
Yes. my understanding, if you have mail on multiple servers, you will need external IP’s to each of these.
Is your SMTP server also a mail server? In our case, our SMTP is totally seperate, only routing mail.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
