LOCATIONS AND ACCOUNTS

To switch to a different User ID for a different location
You can specify a different User ID file that IBM® Lotus® Notes® should use for a location. For example, if you sometimes travel to a different office with Lotus Notes on a laptop that you connect to the LAN there, create a Location document that switches to an ID authorized for servers at that office.

Tip When you routinely use a different computer either in the same office or a different office, you can streamline your work process by asking your Domino administrator to make you a roaming user.

1. On any computer with single-user Lotus Notes installed, insert a floppy disk with your ID file, or move your ID to the hard drive.

2. Click File > Locations > Manage Locations.

3. Select the location and click Edit.

4. Click the Advanced tab.

5. In the User ID to switch to field, specify a User ID file (you can click the search icon to browse the operating system).

6. Click Save & Close.
