Hello,
Is it possible to make the default clients’ personal address books located on the Domino server instead of having them stored locally on the Notes client?

It is not a standard why of implementing. You biggest problem is that the notes client is going to look locally for the address book.
I would expect you will have problems with that type of implementation. Because anytime I did not have a personal address book local to the user workstation the Lotus Notes client had problems.
I would advise to NOT put the address book on the server, but rather have a replica of the addressbook locally and on the server. You can have the client replicate the local copy to the server and the lotus notes application will be not give you as many problems. [Just remember to have background replication enable on every user’s desktop.]
HTH – Cheers

Further to Joe’s point, you could consider implementing Roaming, which will take care of this for you.

Thanks David - the feature named slipped my mind. Pre-Roaming feature days, it was implemented the way I described.
