CONFIGURING

Directory assistance for the primary Domino Directory

A server with a local replica of its primary Domino® Directory searches the directory automatically without the use of directory assistance.

About this task

You can configure directory assistance for the primary Domino Directory of servers that use a directory assistance database to:


If multiple domains use replicas of one directory assistance database, you might also create a Directory Assistance document for the primary Domino Directory so that servers in other domains that use the directory assistance database can do lookups in the directory.

Note: You cannot prevent a server from using its primary Domino Directory for Notes® mail addressing, client authentication, or group lookups for database authorization. A server can always use a primary Domino Directory for these purposes, regardless of the options you select for the directory in the Directory Assistance document.
