How to compare, contrast and edit Lotus Notes document field values with scanEZ
Thu, Jul 22nd 2010 6:39p Peter Woodford We’re always eager to hear how customers are using our software. Oftentimes folks surprise us with novel and creative uses we never would have thought of ourselves. But every so often, we hear from people who are so busy they haven’t had the chance to explore anything beyond the most immediate, hit-you-over-the-head noticeable aspects of the software (e.g. the Conflict Solver). This is truly a shame because the ‘just below the surface’ features are some of the biggest tim [read] Keywords: domino

A quick way to uncover (and fill) security holes on Domino servers using aclEZ
Tue, Jun 22nd 2010 2:26p Peter Woodford One of the nicest things about aclEZ’s grouping grid interface is that is that it allows you sort and filter live information on all the Lotus Notes database ACLs on a server (even for databases that aren’t included in the catalog.nsf file). Here’s a simple-yet-practical application of this feature:
Using aclEZ’s Grouping Grid to Spot Inappropriate Access Settings
To start you need to load all your ACL entries in aclEZ’s grid:
Then you drag the ‘Access’ [read] Keywords: acl

How to clean up a Lotus Notes out-of-office agent mess with agentEZ
Tue, May 18th 2010 5:10p Peter Woodford One of our customers recently used our agentEZ tool in an interesting way to deal with a big out-of-office agent problem. We realize that the Out of Office agent is already ancient history to folks who’ve switched to the Out of Office service (introduced in R8). But we still talk to a lot of people who have at least one pre-R8 server in the cluster where their mail files reside, and thus continue to rely on the Out of Office agent. Bearing this in mind, we thought we’d share this one [read] Keywords: acl

When the dreaded “Field is too large (32K)” Lotus Notes error strikes…
Fri, Apr 23rd 2010 1:05p Peter Woodford There are some problems in life—and in Lotus Notes—that defy easy solutions. And one such problem is the “Field is too large (32K)” error, which affects documents whenever the size of the Summary data for a field grows beyond the limit set in Notes*.
*The Lotus Notes Summary data limit is 32K for a single field or 64k for an entire document. See this Technote to read more.

A fast way to change NSF Replica IDs: Often a handy time-saver (and occasionally a life-saver)
Tue, Mar 23rd 2010 3:23p Peter Woodford Try to picture yourself in this situation: An end-user alerts you to the fact that they just did something very bad to a Lotus Notes database—and somehow accidentally deleted hundreds of essential documents. Naturally, this end-user doesn’t apologize for his stupidity, he just orders you to “fix it now.” Suppressing your natural urge to lay violent hands upon this person (who’s incidentally a “C-level” executive), your mind shifts gears to the problem at han [read] Keywords: domino
