I was inspired by Paul Mooney, http://pmooney.net/ he described ID vault Functionality which was introduced on Lotusphere 2008.

Now at last,  we can play with it.

Configuration process is rather simple :) I hope this may encourage you to do it yourself :)

First of all check that you have idvault.ntf template on your Domino server, else when you click finish, installation will fail. :(
Just Navigate to Configuration Tab->Tools>ID Vault.







Just click Next :)




Specify Password for accessing VAULT.


Specify server where VAULT will be located, in case of cluster, specify all cluster nodes.



Specify person who is authorized to Add people who can reset passwords.




Supply your organization, in majority of cases this will be the only one, you can split it in several OU units as well.




Then specify WHO is ALLOWED to reset password to Users, in case you are the person who will reset password, you can set "Self-service password reset authority", this mean if you request to reset password for your self, server will reset your password by agent.


Next, we need to push this thought policy to users.

Here we need to supply existing Domino Settings and policy.



Policy is a very powerful tool, so you just pick policy you already have.


write a message to a user, you can customize text



In Step 9 you can review your configuration and if everything is ok, then click CREATE VAULT.



Progress Bar will show status of creating ID vault.
