Customizing the Directory Profile
Use the Directory Profile to specify miscellaneous settings for the IBM® Lotus® Domino™ Directory:

1. From the Domino Administrator, in the server pane on the left, select the server that stores the replica of the Domino Directory you want to modify. If you don't see the server pane, click the servers icon.

2. Click the Files tab.

3. Select the Domino Directory, and then double-click.

4. Choose Actions - Edit Directory Profile.

5. Complete any of these fields, and then click Save & Close.

Field Enter

Domain defined by this Domino Directory The name of the Domino domain for this directory. Domino completes this field automatically as part of first server setup.

Condensed server directory catalog for domain The file name for a condensed Directory Catalog used by servers in the domain. As an alternative to using this field, you can specify the file names for individual condensed Directory Catalogs in the "Directory catalog database name on this server" field in the Basics section of Server documents. Setting up a directory catalog is optional.

Sort all new groups by default Choose one:

Yes to display the members of a new group in alphabetical order.
No (default) to display members of a group in the order in which you add them. If you select No, you can still override this option and alphabetize members of a specific group.

Use more secure Internet Passwords Choose one:

Yes (default) to use strong encryption for Internet passwords.
No to use less secure encryption available with previous releases of Domino.

Allow the creation of Alternate Language Information documents Choose one:

Yes (default) to allow you to create Alternate Language Information documents that enable LDAP clients to search for user information in an alternate language.
No to prevent the creation of Alternate Language Information documents.

List of administrators who are allowed to create Cross Domain Configuration documents in the Administration Process Requests database Enter the names of users who can create Cross Domain Configuration documents to allow the Administration Process to submit requests between Domino domains.
