Creating a Terminations group with the Domino Administrator or Web Administrator

You may want to create a group for employees who no longer have access to specific servers in your organization. When you are deleting a person from the Domino Directory, you can then add that person's name to a Terminations group that is assigned a group type of Deny List Only. This is particularly useful for preventing terminated employees from accessing servers.

1. Create a group named Terminations and assign it a group type of Deny List Only. For more information on creating groups, see Creating a group with the Domino Administrator or Creating a group with the Web Administrator.

Note Groups of the type "Deny List Only" do not have to be named Terminations; assign any name that you choose. We only suggest the name "Terminations" for clarity.

2. From the Domino Administrator or Web Administrator, follow instructions for deleting a user name, but on the Delete Person dialog box, locate the "Add deleted user to Deny Access Group" field and then click Groups.

For more information about deleting a user name, see Deleting a user name with the Domino Administrator or Deleting a user name with the Web Administrator.

3. Continue the delete process as usual, and then click OK.
