Hi, Lotus Community.I am planing to publish free open source solution based on Tivoli Directory Integrator, which will integrate Lotus Domino and Active Directory.
That is , accounts created in AD (in russian language AD means HELL) and then in Domino changes happens automatically.
My Idea for this solution, anyone with basic _LOTUS_ admin/developer knowledge can take advantage of it.
I find TDI fantastic tool, but for those who worked a lot with Lotus, especially admins , Javascript things may be a bit complicated.
It is planned that solution will be 90% based on LotusScript, then I hope new niche for be found.
The idea is quite simple, dump all AD changes into a small temporary database called SuperProxy.
Then with LotusScript we process all changes in Domino.
So far my solution is able to
* Create New people (supports Clustered mailservers)
* Modify People (basic attributes, phone, email)
* Rename via AdminP
* Delete People
* Support Domino ID Vault
* Cert.id or Certificate Authority
* Has plane looking dashboard (at least I think it looks like in a plane), and shows progress of sync, so you all ways know if everything is ok, or you are in trouble (no sync during last X hours)
* Group Creating
* Group Modification
* Group Deletion
* Configurable settings, for new users
* Advanced Activity Log (what has been done)
* Built-in LotusScript Error log (nobody wants to look in console for prints, right? ;) )
Not sure if Group management in AD is good idea, but seems some people wish to do everything in AD.
It would be nice if people can share their requirements, like AD only management and they need only people sync, or groups only.
Or they use iNotes access, Directory Assistance to login with AD passwords in Domino iNotes, Traveler, etc?
