Don't you have your notes client set to use your windows client log on?
I
never get prompted for my notes password.
We all use that, but it's hardly the same as EIM/SSO, it's a manual
synchronization of passwords. If the 'Login to Notes using your operating
system login' validated against active directory we would have something
approaching SSO, but it isn't even close. Problems will arise when the
user is reminded to change their password on the Windows domain. The user
changes their password, but then has to remember their old password to get
into Lotus Notes. That may not seem like much of an issue, but with the
finger scanners on many laptops a _lot_ of users no longer remember what
their old password was.
The only way for the user to synchronize the password at that point is to
remember the old password, go into Notes, change the password in Notes to
match the Windows password. If the 'Login to Notes using your operating
system login' validated against active directory we would have something
approaching SSO, but it isn't even close.
[I'm told by our Lotus Notes admin that is possible to tie Notes in to
validate against the domain/active directory, even when not connected to
the network. It apparently is not that easy to set up and rarely
done.....]
