Re: PAB Backup question

[ptrapp@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

With the roaming users, their login is determined by their network login, 
I believe.  So the only people accessing their account (and ID file) would 
be those with their network password.  At least, that's my recollection -- 
we're not actively using it here yet.

Re: PAB Backup question






Thanks for all the responses.

All of my users are using iNotes templates. I just found out about 
synchronizing the address book too and I can do that in 5.0.11 and 6.5.1. 
This at least gives immediate backup capability which is my highest 
priority at the moment. 

I did test recovering a synchronized PAB too by deleting my PAB, creating 
a new one from a template and then synchronizing. All my PAB data was 
there but the probems I did encounter (but haven't spent a lot of time 
researching) is that when I restarted notes, by mail was set to default to 

my local replica, and all my location documents were gone. I also lost all 

my admin capabilities too, even after switching id files. (I even deleted 
my cache file too.) Once I deleted and restored my orginal PAB all was 
well and back to normal. I may test doing this again, but this time 
setting the ACL on the new pab BEFORE doing the synchronize.

I also am just beginning to learn about roaming profiles too as this may 
assist a few of the power users. I'm ready to set this up for myself and 
my only question is whether I should include my .id file in my PAB. Does 
doing so eliminate my need to have an .id file on any remote pc? And from 
a security standpoint wouldn't I want to require the user to provide an 
.id file provided to them on a diskette or other portable media?
