Servertask with full path - question

We are running an application as a server task which is not located in the Domino program directory.So it is specified with it’s full path in the notes.ini file (Servertasks= …).

To load this application we have to type in the server console something like ‘load /programname’

which is annoying during typing if the the path is a long string.

Does anybody know if there is a way to use a user-friendly short “load” command? Maybe by setting some kind of alias name.

Thanks in advance

Does anybody know if there is a notes.ini switch to specify path(s) where an application is located which is to be run as a server task ?

Hi Hans

You haven’t said what o/s you are running Domino on.

For unix filesystems you could consider creating a softlink within the notes application folder that links back to your application ?

Something similar can be done in windows with ‘symlink’

Thanks for the reply.

But this is exactly the work around we are using since a long time.
