Domino SMTP error limit before terminating connections  

By Daniel Nashed | 2/10/20 2:14 PM | Infrastructure - Notes / Domino | Added by Matteo Bisi

My friend Harvey and I noticed a lot of brute force delivery attempts on servers to figure out about email addresses. By default Domino doesn't limit the number of errors until a connection is closed. But there is a notes.ini entry and setting in config document to define the number of errors. https://help.hcltechsw.com/domino/11.0.0/conf_definingthemaximumerrorlimitbeforeaconnectionterm_t.html For larger servers you have to be careful, because that could also prevent newsletters from being delivered, if there are too many users which don't exist. On my own server I set the value now to 4 ;-)

Verse on-Premises or iNotes? Default or option?  

By Ales Lichtenberg | 2/6/20 4:07 PM | Infrastructure - Notes / Domino | Added by Roberto Boccadoro

Verse On-Premises (VOP) is already in version 1.0.9.A. Most users are still used to accessing mail from a web browser using iNotes. Do you want to set VOP as default or give users a option between iNotes and VOP? Upgrade your design or create a new iwaredir from the template included in the VOP 1.0.9 or 1.0.9.A package.

Domino Administration Back to Basics Part 2 - Networking  

By Stephan Wissel | 2/4/20 7:37 PM | Infrastructure - Notes / Domino | Added by Kenio Carvalho

Domino Administration Back to Basics Part 2 - Networking - In Part 1 we learned about the marvelous world of Notes Names, X400 and the perils of messing with certificates. One big difference to X509 is the (almost) absence of certificate Command Line tools that can be so much fun. Domino Networking - protocols as you like it Domino predates the rise of TCP.

Domino Administration - Back to Basics (Part 1) Certificates  

By Stephan Wissel | 2/4/20 5:44 PM | Infrastructure - Notes / Domino | Added by Oliver Busse

Domino Administration - Back to Basics (Part 1) Certificates - Domino is different, a lot of its concepts predate the internet and quite often inspired the standards. This is not an step-by-step instruction, but an introduction into concepts. The 'step by step' approach is another story for another time.

Quick Domino Tip: Error Failed with no Supported Ciphers  

By John Oldenburger | 2/3/20 9:47 AM | Infrastructure - Notes / Domino | Added by Oliver Busse

On one of our Domino servers that we upgraded to Domino 10.0.1 last weekend we disabled TLS 1.0. After the upgrade to Domino 10 we performed as always an SSL server test (SSL Labs) from which the reference emerged that the overall rating would be downgraded to Grade B from January 2020. Reason for the downgrade was that TLS 1.0 was still supported by the server.

If you want to enable photos in the Sametime client, there is documentation available, unfortunately it all refers to versions 9 or 10, where it was told to use the Sametime Console. Now in version 11 the Sametime Console does not exist, so how do you do that ?

Sametime 11 – What to do if file transfer is not working  

By Roberto Boccadoro | 1/28/20 10:39 AM | Infrastructure - Notes / Domino | Added by John Oldenburger

I stumbled into a problem at one of my customers. In the client, the icon for file transfer was greyed out and the one for sending a screenshot was missing.

Restoring deleted folders in a Notes database

Feature Request: Trash for Folders. In many customer environments, restoring deleted folders is number one reason for restoring databases. For documents you already have soft-deletions and the trash (default 48 hours which can be increased). And you can restore the document to the original folder.
