Hi There,

When trying to run an agent to update a password via a webpage I keep receiving the following error: 05/17/2010 02:54:46 PM HTTP Server: Agent… error: User Anonymous cannot open database names.nsf

Any suggestions to resolve this issue?

Thanks,

Gil

Subject: ACL

pretty much means the user is not authenticated and has no access to your domino directory.

It’s probably best practice to not allow anonymous access to names.nsf isn’t it? If I allowed the web agent to have access then potentially it would open up names.nsf to the whole world wouldn’t it?

Thanks,

typically anonymous would not have access to names.nsf, I was just answering your question as to why you were getting the error.
