1. Ensure that you are working with the xSP server you just installed. If you need to change to another server, choose File - Open Server, or File - Preferences - Administration Preferences to select the server.

2. From the IBM® Lotus® Domino™ Administrator, click the Configuration tab.

3. From the Tools pane, click Hosted Org - Create.

4. Enter the certifier's password, and click OK.

5. Complete these fields on the Basics panel of the Register Hosted Organization interface:

Field	Action
Registration Server	Enter the name of the server to use during the registration process. The Domino Administrator contacts the registration server while performing registration tasks.
Organization name	Enter a unique name for the hosted organization. The name must be fewer than 28 characters and cannot contain a period (.) because the hosted organization name is also used as the hosted organization's virtual Domino domain name for routing purposes. For ease-of-administration, use a short name with no spaces. Organization name is a required entry that is also used in the Internet Site documents.
Organization supports DOLS	Choose this option if the hosted organization supports Domino Off-Line Services (DOLS).
Password	Enter a case-sensitive password for the certifier. The characters you use for this password depend on the level set in the Password quality scale.
Password quality	Displays the Password Quality Scale that you can use to define the complexity of the password. Do not choose "Password is optional."
Explicit Policy	Choose the explicit policy document that is the ancestor of the registration policy settings document you are assigning to the hosted organization. Click None Available if you have not yet created the necessary policies and/or settings documents.
First Name, Middle Name, Last Name	Enter the name of the hosted organization administrator.
Password	Enter a password for the hosted organization administrator.

6. Complete as many of these fields as needed to enable the corresponding protocols for the hosted organization. When you enter the host name or IP address for a protocol, that protocol is enabled when the corresponding Site document is created. You are prompted to complete the corresponding Site document later during this registration process.

Field	Action
Internet Domain	Enter the name of the Internet domain. By default, the exact Internet domain name that you specified for this hosted organization on the Mail tab of the registration policy settings document is entered. For example, enterprise.com.
HTTP Host/Address	Enter the host name or IP address of the HTTP server for the hosted organization.
SMTP Host/Address	Enter the host name or IP address of the server that receives SMTP transactions for the hosted organization.
POP3 Host/Address	Enter the host name or IP address of the POP3 server for the hosted organization.
IMAP Host/Address	Enter the host name or IP address of the IMAP server for the hosted organization.
Directory Host/Address	Enter the host name or IP address of the LDAP server for the hosted organization.
IIOP Host/Address	Enter the host name or IP address of the Domino IIOP server for the hosted organization.

7. Complete these fields on the ID Info panel:

Field	Action
CA Enabled	Choose this option if the hosted organization supports DOLS or uses IBM® Lotus® Notes® IDs.
CA Server	Enter the name of the server on which you created the Domino CA. This is the server on which the CA process will create Internet Certificates. This button is active only if you have created a Domino CA.
Set ID file	Specify the drive and directory in which the ID file is to be stored. By default, the certifier ID name matches the hosted organization name. The certifier ID must be unique to the hosted organization.

8. Complete these fields on the Storage panel:

Field	Action
Mail Server	By default, this field contains the name of the mail server for the hosted organization exactly as you entered it in registration policy settings document for the hosted organization. The hosted organization and the administrator's mail file will be stored on this server. This field cannot be modified.
Directory	By default, this field contains the name of the directory in which the hosted organization's data resides. For ease-of-administration, the directory name is created for you and is identical to the hosted organization name. This field cannot be modified.
Host	Indicates whether the corresponding server hosts the hosted organization. This field cannot be modified for the first entry in this list. The first server entry in this list has a check mark because that server is identified in the registration policy settings document as the mail server for the hosted organization. For all other servers, a check mark in this box identifies that server as a host server for the hosted organization.
Server Name	Name of the server that is hosting the hosted organization. If multiple server names appear in this list, the first server in the list is the hosting server; other servers are the cluster mates.
Physical Storage location	The directory name that is displayed is an alternate location where the hosted organization's data directory will reside if you do not use the default location.
Physical Storage location for <server name>	Use this field to create a directory link to an additional storage location for the hosted organization you are registering. This field is activated when you select a server in the Server Name field. The check box for the server must be checked in order to select it. To add a directory link, enter the full path for the storage location and then click the check box so that the directory link displays in the Physical Storage Location field. To delete a directory link, select the link in the ServerName/Physical Storage Location fields. When the path displays in the modifiable "Physical Storage Location for <server>" field, click the X..

9. (Optional) Complete these fields on the Other panel:

Field	Action
Location	Enter text to define the location of the hosted organization.
Comment	Enter text to define the hosted organization's name and other information.

10. If you have not selected an explicit policy for this hosted organization, this message appears:

"You must configure the organizational registration policy

for the hosted organization. This policy must contain the

necessary hosted organization settings. Do you want to

configure that policy now?"

12. Click Register. The Internet Site document for the first protocol you specified appears. Modify the defaults, and add new information as necessary.

Note If the hosted organization supports DOLS, on the Web Site document, specify a DSAPI filter file name according to the operating system of the xSP server that hosts that hosted organization. Win32 requires the file ndolextn; and Linux, AIX, Solaris/Sparc, S390, and iSeries require libdolextn.

For more information on Internet Site documents, see the topics Internet Site documents and Creating an Internet Site document. For more information on the Web Site document, see Hosting Web sites.

Modifying the extended ACL settings established during hosted organization registration

Plan and test carefully before you modify ACLs and extended ACLs in an xSP environment -- security is extremely important.

When hosted organization registration is complete, all actions that are identified in the topic "What happens when you register a hosted organization?" are complete. You may want to enable Read access on some fields for a hosted organization. To allow Read access to fields for the anonymous entry in a hosted organization, in the extended ACL settings, change Browse from Deny to Allow. In the Forms and Fields Access section, select Show Modified, and change the fields from Read Deny to Read Allow.

Note The individual fields are listed in the topic "What happens when you register a hosted organization?" in this chapter.
