Setting up DWA

Hi All!

I have to set up DWA in my works environment. All the templates are DWA7.ntf and now I need to set up the server and get everythign running. we are going to use a reverse proxy, but I am open to other ideas too.

What are my next steps in getting DWA running in our environment? Is there step by step documentation I can read? I just need to know what to do and how to do it sicne I am new to this.

Thanks!

DWA7.nsf + HTTP service on the server = Domino Web Access.

At its basic this is is all you need to do. As long as the HTTP server is up Domino will present the MAIL file with the correct template.

… taken from Admin help…

Domino Web Access provides Notes users with browser-based access to Notes mail and Notes calendar and scheduling features. Using Domino Web Access, a user can send and receive mail, view the calendar, invite people to meetings, create to do lists, keep a notebook, and work off line.

To set up Domino Web Access, choose “Web Browsers (HTTP Web services)” during Server Setup. If you want to give users the ability to work off line, also choose Domino Off-Line Services (DOLS). DOLS is not required to run Domino Web Access.

Note When providing a Domino domain name, do not use a period. For example, use AcmeProduction as a domain name instead of Acme.Production.

In the Domino Administrator, make sure that the Fully Qualified Domain name (FQDN) (such as acme.lotus.com) is specified on the Basics tab of the Server document.

As for the reverse proxy. This is dependent on what you are going to be using.

Some will use “iNotes Web Access Redirect” this works as a sort of PORTAL access to peoples mail… USERNAME and PASSWORD depends on the database to OPEN.

The other would be LDAP lookup. The admin help will also help here too.

HINT Download a LDAP explorer is it is not working and try to get the information yourself. This may point to a config error.

Hope this helps
