We're using Lotus Notes 6 (not for email but for an application) on 10 workstations and using roaming Windows profiles. As it stands, each user has to set their Notes up on each workstation they want to use. Since the user's .id file is stored in C:\Documents and Settings\Local Settings\.... along with all their other data, we've found two major problems.
If the user changes his Notes password on one machine, it does not replicate when he switches machines, meaning he could have to remember 2-3 passwords at at time until all workstations have been changed.
The users Bookmarks and settings do not follow them.
I know it can be stored on the user's home share according to this post, but he didn't specify how.
Anyone who administrates Notes, please help.
EDIT : answer found
I had to re-install Notes in single user mode, create a default user profile with the notes.ini pointing the 'Directory' to I:\Notes and change the shortcut (all users) to "C:\Program Files\Lotus\Notes\notes.exe" =I:\Notes\notes.ini
This seems to work and keeps the users profile on their I: drive so bookmarks and passwords follow them wherever they go.
