Note Domino first server setup creates IDs with a default public key width of 1024 bits. If a different key width is required, run SETUP.EXE to install the Domino files but before starting the server, open the server's NOTES.INI file, and then set SETUP_FIRST_SERVER_PUBLIC_KEY_WIDTH to the desired key width. For example, for Domino R5-compatible keys, install the files for the Domino server by running SETUP.EXE, but before starting the server, open the NOTES.INI file and then set SETUP_FIRST_SERVER_PUBLIC_KEY_WIDTH=630. The public key width can be set to either 630 or 1024 when using the NOTES.INI variable.

Setting up the first Domino server does the following:

• Creates a Domino domain.
• Creates the certification log file, names it CERTLOG.NSF, and saves it in the Domino data directory.
• Uses the PUBNAMES.NTF template to create the Domino Directory for the domain, names the directory NAMES.NSF, and places it in the Domino data directory.
• Creates an organization certifier ID, names it CERT.ID, and saves it in the Domino data directory.
• Optionally creates an organizational unit certifier ID, names it OUCERT.ID, and stores it in the Domino Directory.
• Creates a Certifier document, which describes the organization certifier ID, in the Domino Directory.
• Creates a server ID, names it SERVER.ID, and saves it in the Domino data directory.
• Uses the organization certifier ID to certify the server ID.
• Creates a Server document in the Domino Directory and includes in it information that you specified during the setup program.
• Creates a Person document in the Domino Directory for the Domino Administrator that you specified during the setup program.
• Creates a user ID and password for the Domino Administrator and attaches it as a file named USER.ID to the administrator's Person document in the Domino Directory.
• Uses the organization certifier ID to certify the administrator's user ID.
• Gives the administrator and the server Manager access in the ACL of the Domino Directory.
• Adds the server name to the LocalDomainServers group in the Domino Directory.
• Creates the log file, names it LOG.NSF, and saves it in the Domino data directory.
• Enables the appropriate network and serial ports.
• Creates a mail directory in the Domino data directory and creates a mail file in that directory for the Domino Administrator.
• Creates the Reports file, names it REPORTS.NSF, and saves it in the Domino data directory.
• Updates network settings in the Server document of the Domino Directory.
• Configures SMTP, if selected during the setup program.
• If "DOLS Domino Off Line Services" was selected during the setup program, creates the Off-Line Services file, names it DOLADMIN.NSF, and saves it in the Domino data directory,.
• Updates the Access Control List in all databases and templates in the Domino data directory tree to remove Anonymous access and/or add LocalDomainAdmin access, depending on the selections made during the setup program.
• Configures xSP Service Provider information, if selected during the install program.

• Copies the Domino Directory, if a file location was specified during the setup program, names it NAMES.NSF, and saves it in the Domino data directory.
• Dials the existing Domino server if the connection is made through a modem (possible only on Microsoft® Windows® systems).
• Copies the server's ID from the location specified during the setup program, either from a file, a copy of the directory, or the existing Domino server's directory; names it SERVER.ID; and saves it in the Domino data directory.
• Retrieves the Domain name and Administrator name from the Server document in the Domino Directory.
• Creates the log file, names it LOG.NSF, and saves it in the Domino data directory.
• Copies or replicates the Administration Requests file, names it ADMIN4.NSF, and saves it in the Domino data directory.
• Copies or replicates the Monitoring Configuration file, names it EVENTS4.NSF, and saves it in the Domino data directory.
• Replicates the Domino Directory, if it doesn't already exist, names it NAMES.NSF, and saves it in the Domino data directory.
• Creates a Connection document to the existing Domino server in the Domino Directory.
• Creates the Reports file, names it REPORTS.NSF, and saves it in the Domino data directory.
• Updates network settings in the Server document of the Domino Directory.
• Configures SMTP, if selected during the setup program.
• If "DOLS Domino Off-Line Services" was selected during the setup program, creates the Off-Line Services file, names it DOLADMIN.NSF, and saves it in the Domino data directory.
• Updates the Access Control List in all databases and templates in the Domino data directory tree to remove Anonymous access and/or add LocalDomainAdmin access, depending on the selections made during the setup program.
