The ability to use the LotusScript or Java backend class methods to create new or replica databases is controlled by the "Create New Databases" and "Create Replica Databases" fields in the Server document in the IBM® Lotus® Domino(TM) Directory.

Classes and methods in this table also apply to remote Java/JavaScript programs that access server based Domino objects over CORBA/IIOP. User access is controlled by the server document fields "Run Restricted Java/Javascript" and "Run UnRestricted Java/Javascript" found under the heading "IIOP Restrictions."

Table of restricted backend class and method

Task	LotusScript	Java
Using a disk-based log file	NotesLog OpenFileLog(path)	Log openFileLog(path)
Using Environment variables	NotesSession GetEnvironmentString() NotesSession SetEnvironmentVar() NotesSession GetEnvironmentValue(SystemVariable,true)	Session getEnvironmentString() Session SetEnvironmentVar() Session GetEnvironmentValue(SystemVariable,true)
Encrypting or signing	NotesDocument Sign() NotesDocument Encrypt()	Document sign() Document encrypt()
Embedded Object manipulation	NotesRichTextItem EmbedObject() NotesEmbeddedObject ExtractFile(path)	RichTextItem embedObject() EmbeddedObject extractFile(path)

Table of restricted programming language operations

Task	LotusScript statement	Java
File I/O	Chdir Chdrive close curdir dir eof fileattr filedatetime filelen freefile get getfileattr input input # inputb line input # loc lock s lof mkdir Open reset rmdir seek setfileattr unlock width write	No file I/O operations allowed
Network I/O	N/A	No network I/O operations allowed
Setting system date/time	Date and Date$ Time and Time$	N/A
Calling a "C" routine	External C calls Declare	Users with unrestricted access must also set the NOTES.INI parameter "JavaUserClasses" to the file name of the class file that contains the native methods. For example, use JavaUserClasses= c:\lotus\notes\MyJavaClasses. This overrides a security restriction of the Agent class loader, which does not allow classes with native methods to be loaded.
Executing another application	ActivateApp Shell	Not allowed
