Sharing Notes Client on Terminals?

Hi All,One of my client is having their domino server installed on a terminal server. So only one user can log in to the mailbox at a time. Is there any way that all the users can log in to the Domino Server at once?

Thanks,

Buwaneka

Every user need his/here own Notes data directory with the notes.ini in the data directory.

You start notes with:

notes.exe =i:\notes\data\notes.ini

where i: is the users drive letter.

USER AND SERVER CONFIGURATION

Multi-user installations

Multi-user installation applies to Microsoft Windows (Win 32) users only. The multi-user installation is only supported for the Notes client installations; it is not supported for installing the Domino Administrator client or the Domino Designer. Therefore, the multi-user option is only available in the Notes installation kit.

Use the multi-user installation if your enterprise has multiple users who share a single workstation. Then when users log onto the system, they run the Lotus Notes 6 client setup and their own personal data files – that is, BOOKMARK.NSF, NAMES.NSF, and other files are created.

The multi-user installation differs from a shared installation in that Program files are located on the local system in a multi-user install, which can be an advantage. This allows for access to the Notes client regardless of which network drives are available. In a shared installation, users are dependent on the availability of shared network drives.

In a multi-user installation, install the Domino Program files to a central location on the local system. Each user has their own data directory located in the system’s application data directory for the current user. The actual location varies as follows according to operating system:

Example 1 – c:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Lotus\Notes Data

Example 2 – c:\winNT\Profiles\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Lotus\Notes Data

Example 3 – c:\Bin\Win95\Profiles\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Lotus\Notes Data

Each user’s individual data files are created when the user logs on to the workstation, launches the Lotus Notes 6 client, and completes the client setup. The multi-user option is only visible to those users with administrative privileges on the local system. This installation option is not enabled for other users.

Note Individual Location documents are no longer needed for each user that utilizes the Notes client on the same workstation, as compared to previous releases where individual Location documents had to be created for each user when multiple users attempted to use the same Notes client installation on a workstation.
