Specifies the location of the server ID or the user ID file. This setting lets an administrator use one ID to run the server. For example:
On the Macintosh: KeyFileName = Notes:JForgo.ID
On UNIX: KeyFileName = /home/server1/notes/kbowker.id
On Windows: KeyFileName = C:\Lotus\Notes\DMccarrick.ID
The default setting is the ID for the administrator that you specify when you set up the server. See ServerKeyFileName for information on specifying a server ID file for a machine that runs both the Notes workstation and Domino server programs.
KeyFileName = path
There is no UI equivalent.
KitType
Applies to: Servers and clients
Specifies which program you are running:
1 - Workstation
2 - Server
The default value is specified during the Install program. You can install the workstation, the server, or both
the workstation and server. The value when you install the server and workstation on the same machine
is 2.
Specifies information about network ports on servers and workstations. For example:
LAN0 = spx, 1, , 2000
LAN1 = netbios, 0, 15, 2000, , 12288
The LAN0 port is configured for an SPX network connection. The LAN1 port is configured for a NetBIOS connection and contains additional port setup information.
Exclude the _ or i prefix and the .DLL extension from the port driver name. The default is specified during the Install program.
On a workstation, File - Preferences - User Preferences - Ports; on a server, the Ports tab in the Server document.
Last_Domino_Time
Applies to: Servers
Last recorded internal Domino time.
<Value set by Domino server> (default) - The value set by the Domino server.
Blank - You can remove the value set by the Domino server to force the Domino server to restart without failure after an extended amount of down time.
For example: Last_Domino_Time = 0020DE198525746F
Last_Domino_Time = value set by Domino server
There is no UI equivalent.
LDAPBatchAdds
Applies to: Servers
Specifies which views in the Domino Directory the LDAP service updates after processing an LDAP write operation:
0 - After a write operation the LDAP service updates all the Domino Directory views it uses
1 - After a write operation the LDAP service updates only the ($LDAPRDNHier) view and waits for the Update
task to update the other views it uses
There is no default setting, although without this setting, after processing an LDAP write operation the LDAP service updates all the views it uses.
LDAPBatchAdds = value
There is no UI equivalent.
Use LDAPBatchAdds = 1 before doing batch LDAP adds of 100 entries or more so that so that the additions are processed more quickly. When the LDAP adds are complete, immediately remove the setting or change it back to LDAPBatchAdds = 0. Failure to immediately remove or change this setting back to 0 after completing the batch processing will cause subsequent LDAP operations to be unreliable.
LDAPConfigUpdate
Interval
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the interval at which the LDAP service detects and puts into effect changes to these configuration settings:
Settings in the domain Configuration Settings document except "Choose fields that anonymous users can query via LDAP" and "Allow LDAP users write access"
notes.ini settings related to the LDAP service set through the Set Configuration command
LDAP activity logging settings on the Activity Logging tab of a Configuration Settings document
You must always restart the LDAP task to put into effect changes to these settings:
"Choose fields that anonymous users can query via LDAP"
"Allow LDAP users write access"
Port and port security settings on the Ports - Internet Ports - Directory tab.
Without this setting the interval is three minutes.
LDAPConfigUpdate
Interval = number of minutes
There is no UI equivalent.
LDAPGroupMembership
Applies to: Servers
The LDAP service always searches Domino groups specified as "Multi-purpose," "Access Control List only," "Servers only," or "Deny List only" groups because it can do so quickly.
However because searches of Domino groups specified as "Mail only" groups or of groups that do not have a value for the GroupType attribute can be slow, by default the LDAP service does not always search these types of groups.
The LDAP service does not search these types of groups if a search query meets all of the following criteria, indicating a query that is typically used for authentication:
A search query uses the equality filter objectclass=value, where value is one of these object classes: groupOfNames, groupOfUniqueNames, dominoGroup, or group.
A search query uses an equality filter with one of these attributes: member, uniqueMember, or members.
The two filters above are concatenated using the AND operator.
For example, by default the LDAP service does not search Domino "Mail only" groups and groups that do not have values for the GroupType attribute if search queries such as these are specified:
However, by default the LDAP service does search these groups if search queries such as these are specified: (&(objectclass=dominoGroup)
(member=*br*))
(member=cn=jack brown,o=acme)
(|(&(objectclass=dominoGroup)
(member=cn=jack brown,o=acme))
(cn=*groupname*))
To change the LDAP service default behavior for group searches, specify one of these values for this setting:
1 - Always search all groups that meet specified search criteria.
If you choose this setting, full-text indexing the directory is recommended to improve the speed of searches of Domino "Mail only" groups and groups that do not use the GroupType attribute.
2 - Never search Domino "Mail only" groups or groups that do not use the GroupType attribute.
There is no default setting.
LDAPGroupMembership = value
There is no UI equivalent.
LDAPIdleSession
ExtendedTimeout
Applies to: Servers
Specify the idle session timeout period for clients specified by the notes.ini variable LDAPIdleSessionExtendedTimeoutClients.
This variable will be ignored if LDAPIdleSessionExtendedTimeoutClients is not set.
The default is 120 minutes, if LDAPIdleSessionExtendedTimeoutClients is set but this variable is not.
LDAPIdleSession
ExtendedTimeout = time in minutes
There is no UI equivalent.
LDAPIdleSessionExtended
TimeoutClients
Applies to: Servers
Specify a comma-delimited list of clients—expressed as IP address or DNS names—to which the timeout period specified by LDAPIdleSessionExtendedTimeout applies. There is no default.
LDAPIdleSessionExtended
TimeoutClients = list of clients
There is no UI equivalent.
LDAPIdleSessionTimeout
Applies to: Servers
Allows the system administrator to set the default idle timeout for LDAP sessions.
The timeout occurs when a client hasn't sent a packet during the time specified by this variable.
The default is 30 minutes, if this notes.ini variable is not set.
LDAPIdleSessionTimeout = time in minutes
There is no UI equivalent.
LDAPNotesPort
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the name of the Notes network port for TCP/IP that you are linking the LDAP service with.
This setting is required for a partitioned server hosting LDAP, and for a single server hosting it if the server more than one Notes port for TCP/IP.
There is no default. For information on binding an Internet service to an IP address, see the Domino Adminstrator Help.
LDAPNotesPort = port name
There is no UI equivalent.
LDAPPre55Outlook
Applies to: Servers and clients
If set to LDAPPre55Outlook = 1, if the LDAP service receives a search query that specifies country (c=xx) as a search base, it converts the search base to root ("").
This setting is designed for use with pre-5.5 Microsoft Outlook Express clients which, when users don't specify a search, automatically use the country associated with the software version as a search base.
Since it's likely that pre-5.5 users who don't specify a search base intend a root search rather than one using the client-supplied country search base, use this setting if the clients that use the LDAP service are primarily pre-5.5 Microsoft Outlook Express clients.
There is no default.
LDAPPre55Outlook = value
There is no UI equivalent.
LDAPName_Update
_Suppress_Time
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the maximum length of time that that the results of a query to an LDAP directory, which has been marked for group expansion, will
be cached for use in building nameslists. Upon expiration, the cached entries will be considered invalid and the creation of a nameslist will result in queries being
sent to the LDAP directory. This addresses the situation, prior to Domino 6, in which the cache did not detect changes that occurred in LDAP directories that had been marked for group expansion, thus serving up stale data which had been cached from those directories indefinitely.
0 - Updates to the LDAP directory are not detected and the group cache is flushed based only on updates to those Domino Directory(ies) that are enabled for group expansion.
integer - This value is interpreted as the lifetime of information from remote LDAP directories in 1/100ths of a second. Thus, if this value is set to 6000 then the information from the LDAP server will only be considered valid for 1 minute. If the LDAP server was marked for group expansion in the DA database this would mean that group cache would be considered stale after one minute.
Settings below 6000 (3000 if the LDAP server task is running) are probably not useful as these servers are subject to a 1 minute (30 seconds if the LDAP server task is running) threshold and should be avoided.
The default setting is 60 minutes [60*60*100 (360000)].
LDAPName_Update
_Suppress_Time = value
There is no UI equivalent.

For example:
Log = LOG.NSF,1,0,7,20000
The log file (LOG.NSF) is deleted in seven days and can contain up to 20,000 bytes.
All log information is also sent to the console.
Default setting is Log = LOG.NSF,1,0,7,40000
Specifies whether or not the start of agent execution is recorded in the log file and shown on the server console:
0 - Do not log agent execution events
1 - Log agent execution events (partially and completely successful)
2 - Log agent execution events (completely successful only)
There is no default setting.
Log_AgentManager = value
UI equivalent: None, although you can specify this setting in the NOTES.INI Settings tab of the Configuration Settings document in the Domino Directory.
Log_Authentication
Applies to: Servers and clients
Specifies whether or not authentication logging is enabled on the server.
To enable authentication logging, set Log_Authentication to a value of 1.
For example, if you specify the following notes.ini settings:
Log_Authentication = 1 (to enable logging) Debug_Console = 1 (to write output to the console window) Debug_Outfile = c:\debug\debug.txt (to write output to the specified text file)
You can use the following table to interpret the output.

0 - Do not log connections
1 - Log connections
There is no default setting.
Log_Connections = value
There is no UI equivalent, although you can specify this setting in the NOTES.INI Settings tab of the Configuration Settings document in the Domino Directory.
Log_Console
Applies to: Servers
Security administrators can use this setting to enforce the logging of server console command output, which can otherwise be prevented
if the command is prefixed with an exclamation point (!).
0 - Console command logging turned off
1 - Console command output logged, unless it's prefixed with an exclamation point
2 - Console command output logged, whether prefixed with the "!" or not
There is no default setting, but in the absence of this setting console command output is logged unless it's prefixed with an exclamation point.
Log_Console = value
There is no UI equivalent.
Log_DirCat
Applies to: Servers
Use this setting to display additional information to the server console when the Dircat task runs. This includes when the task starts and finishes, what directory its aggregating, the domain name of the directory, and how many entries were processed. For more verbose information, including the names of all the entries that are processed, you can set log_dircat=3. However, this setting may slow performance and fill up the server log file, so its use is not recommended
Log_DirCat = value
There is no UI equivalent.
LogFile_Dir
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the directory for the Console Log file (CONSOLE.LOG, by default). If both this setting and the Debug_Outfile setting exist and Debug_Outfile contains a fully qualified path name, then LogFile_Dir is not used. If neither Debug_Outfile or LogFile_Dir exist, then the default path \DATADIRECTORY\ IBM_TECHNICAL_SUPPORT is used. There is no default setting.
LogFile_Dir = directory name
There is no UI equivalent.
Log_Replication
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the level of logging of replication events performed by the current server:
0 - Do not log replication events
1 - Log that a database is replicating

Applies to: Servers
Specifies whether individual sessions are recorded in the log file and displayed on the console:
0 - Do not log individual sessions
1 - Log individual sessions
There is no default setting.
Log_Sessions = value
The UI equivalent for this setting is the Log All Client Events setting, an advanced server setup option. You can also specify this setting in the NOTES.INI Settings tab of the Configuration Settings document in the Domino Directory.
LogStatusBar
Applies to: Clients
Applies to Notes Client and Domino Designer. Controls the default behavior for logging client status bar messages. For use by administrators and developers for
debug purposes. To view the logged messages, open the file, LOG.NSF, and then click the Miscellaneous Events view. Status bar messages are appended with "Status Msg."
To write the status bar messages to an external file, use the notes.ini setting Debug_Outfile = path to file along with this notes.ini setting.
Use the following values to set this variable:
0 (default) - do not log status bar messages (default);
1 - log status bar messages to log.nsf. Messages will still be displayed on the status bar.
LogStatusBar = value
There is no UI equivalent.
Log_Tasks
Applies to: Servers
Specifies whether the current status of server tasks is recorded in the log file and displayed on the console:
0 - Do not send status information
1 - Send the status of server tasks to the log file and to the console
There is no default setting.
Log_Tasks = value
There is no UI equivalent, although you can specify this setting in the NOTES.INI Settings tab of the Configuration Settings document in the Domino Directory.
Log_Update
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the level of detail of Indexer, Update and Updall events displayed at the server console and in the log file. The following values apply to Indexer:
0 (default) - Records when the Indexer starts and shuts down.
1 - Records when the Indexer starts and shuts down and when the Indexer updates views and full text indexes for specific databases.

There is no UI equivalent.
Log_View_Events
Applies to: Servers
Specifies whether messages generated when views are rebuilt are recorded in the log file:
0 - Do not log messages when views are rebuilt
1 - Log messages when views are rebuilt
Removing this setting from the notes.ini file also disables logging of these messages. There is no default setting.
Allows mail.boxes created by server during startup to be created with transaction logging disabled when set to any non-zero value.
The default setting is 0 (transaction logging is enabled for mail.boxes created at server startup).
MailBoxDisable
TXNLogging = value
There is no UI equivalent.
MailCharSet
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the character set a POP3 server uses when downloading mail messages to a POP3 client. Value corresponds to a character set listed in the side file, "MailCharSet values."
If you do not use this setting, the POP3 server looks for a WWWDSP_Codepage value, if this setting is added. (WWWDSP_Codepage controls the character set used by the Web Navigator and accepts the same values as MailCharSet.) Default: None, although if this setting is omitted and there is no WWWDSP_Codepage setting, the POP3 server uses the us-ascii character set.
MailCharSet = value
There is no UI equivalent.
MailCompactDisabled
Applies to: Servers
Enables or disables the routine compacting of the server's MAIL.BOX. Without this setting in the notes.ini file,
MAIL.BOX is compacted routinely when the Compact server task runs:
0 - Enables compacting of MAIL.BOX
1 - Disables compacting of MAIL.BOX
There is no default setting.
MailCompactDisabled = value
There is no UI equivalent.
MailCompactHour
Applies to: Servers
Use this setting to specify the time at which the router should perform mailbox compaction.
Value is based on a 24-hour clock. For example, MailCompactHour=22 will cause compaction to initiate around 10 pm.
There is no default setting. In the absence of the setting, the router will perform mailbox compaction at 4 am.
MailCompactHour = value
There is no UI equivalent.
MailConvertMIME
onTransfer
Applies to: Servers
Enables or disables MIME message conversion on the router. This can help minimize conversion overhead on the server running the
SMTP listener task.
0 (default) - Router does not perform conversions for MIME messages
1 - Router performs conversions for MIME messages
MailConvertMIME
onTransfer = value
There is no UI equivalent.
Mail_Disable_Implicit
_Sender_Key
Applies to: Clients
Determines whether to encrypt an encrypted message with the sender's public key:
0 (default) - Does not encrypt the encrypted message with the sender's public key
1 - Encrypt the encrypted message with the sender's public key
Mail_Disable_Implicit
_Sender_Key = value
There is no UI equivalent.
MailDisablePriority
Applies to: Servers
When set to 1, the MailDisablePriority setting causes the Mail Router to ignore the delivery priority of mail messages. This causes all messages to be delivered with normal priority. If this parameter is set to 0, mail routes according to the parameter determined by the sender. There is no default setting.
MailDisablePriority = value
There is no UI equivalent.
MailLogToEventsOnly
Applies to: Servers and clients
Use this variable to increase performance for logging mail event messages:
0 (default) - Enables logging of mail event messages to the Domino console.
1 -Disables logging of mail event messages to the Domino console.
MailLogToEventsOnly = value
There is no UI equivalent.
Mail_Log_To
_MiscEvents
Applies to: Servers and clients
Determines whether all mail event messages are displayed in the Miscellaneous Events view of the log file:
0 - The router determines whether to log messages to the Mail Events view, the Miscellaneous Events view, or to both views.
This is also true if this variable is not defined.
1 - The router ensures that all messages are logged to the Miscellaneous Events view. If a message is typically logged only to the Mail Events view,
it would now be logged to both the Miscellaneous Events view and the Mail Events view.
To prevent logging to the Domino Console, the notes.ini variable MailLogToEventsOnly can be set to a value of 1. There is no notes.ini setting
to prevent logging to the Miscellaneous Events view. There is no default setting, although if this setting is omitted, mail events are not displayed
in the Miscellaneous Events view. For information on the variable MailLogToEventsOnly, see the listing for MailLogToEventsOnly.
Mail_Log_To
_MiscEvents = value
There is no UI equivalent.
MailServer
Applies to: Servers and clients
Specifies the server where the user's mail file resides. There is no default setting.
MailServer = server
UI equivalent: The Mail Server field in the Mail tab of the Person document in the Domino Directory.
MailSetup
Applies to: Clients
Used in Seamless Mail Upgrade for controlling the upgrade of the design of a user's mail file. The value of this variable is set
during the upgrade process, when the user is prompted to upgrade by the "Upgrade Mail File Design" dialog box. If the user clicks Upgrade, and the upgrade is
successful, the value of this variable is set to the same value as the environment variable Setup in the upgraded Notes Client. For example, if a client is
upgraded to Notes version 6.04, the variable is set like this:
MailSetup = 600400
If the user clicks Cancel, but does not select "Don't show this message again," the value of this variable is set to 1. When the user opens their mail file,
the Upgrade Mail File Design dialog will appear again. If the user clicks Cancel, and also selects "Don't show this message again," a dialog box appears
informing the user to contact their administrator about upgrading the mail file. If the user clicks OK in this dialog box, the value of this variable is set to -1.
The Upgrade Mail File Design dialog box does not appear again. There is no default setting.
MailSetup = value
Mail_Skip
_NoKey_Dialog
Applies to: Clients
Specifies whether to display the Encryption Failure dialog when Notes cannot locate the public key to sign or encrypt a message:
0 - The "Don't show signature or encryption failures again and continue sending" dialog appears when Notes cannot find the public key.
1 - The "Don't show signature or encryption failures again and continue sending" dialog does not appear when Notes cannot find the public key.
Notes then sends the message unsigned and/or unencrypted.
There is no default setting.
Mail_Skip
_NoKey_Dialog = value
UI equivalent: The "Don't show signature or encryption failures again and continue sending" checkbox in the Encryption Failure dialog box.
MailSystem
Applies to: Servers and clients
Specifies the mail system that the user selected during the workstation setup procedure:
0 - Notes mail
1 - cc:Mail or a non-Lotus mail system
There is no default setting.
MailSystem = value
UI equivalent: The mail system selection made during workstation setup.
MailTimeout
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the number of days after which the server returns undelivered mail to the sender. Increase this setting when you have
a lot of mail returned in one day or when you are sending mail to foreign domains. To specify a period of less than one day, use the notes.ini setting
MailTimeoutMinutes. There is no default setting, although if this setting is omitted, undelivered mail is returned after one day.
MailTimeout = number of days
UI equivalent: None, but you can specify this setting in the NOTES.INI Settings tab of the Configuration Settings document in the Domino Directory.
MailTimeoutMinutes
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the number of minutes after which the server returns undelivered mail to the sender. The maximum number of
minutes is 1440 (24 hours). To specify a time greater than one day, use the notes.ini setting MailTimeout. There is no default setting.
MailTimeoutMinutes = number of minutes
There is no UI equivalent.
MailUpgradeFolder
Applies to: Clients
Used in Seamless Mail Upgrade for controlling the upgrade of the design of a user's mail file folders. The value of this variable is set during the upgrade process, when the user is prompted to respond to the "Upgrade Folder Design" dialog box.
If the user has upgraded their mail file successfully, the value of this variable is set to 1 when the user logs in to the Notes client for the first time since the upgrade. When the user opens the mail file, the Upgrade Folder Design dialog box appears.
If the user clicks Automatic Upgrade, the folder design will be upgraded to the default Notes 6 folder style, and the MailUpgradeFolder variable will be set to the same value as the value of the environment variable Setup in the upgraded Notes Client.
If the user clicks Manual Upgrade, the user will be prompted to select the mail folders to upgrade, as well as the design to upgrade the selected folders to. The MailUpgradeFolder variable will not change.
If the user clicks Cancel, the folder design will not be upgraded and the MailUpgradeFolder variable will not change. There is no default setting.
MailUpgradeFolder = value
There is no UI equivalent.
Map_Retry_Delay
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the number of minutes that a server waits after an unsuccessful attempt to call another server before it tries again.
There is no default setting.
Map_Retry_Delay = number of minutes
There is no UI equivalent.
Max_Config_Files
Applies to: Servers
During server initialization, system information from several documents and files is saved. In order to avoid
consuming excessive disk space, the number of files collected can be limited. By default, a maximum of ten file of each type,
ncluding NSD, is collected. If Max_Config_Files is reduced, then the appropriate number of files is deleted. This variable is checked
only when the server starts or if there is a configuration change. If the variable Max_NSDInfo_Files exists, its value is used instead of
Max_Config_Files. Default setting is 10 files.
Max_Config_Files = number of files
There is no UI equivalent.
Max_NSDInfo_Files
Applies to: Servers
During server initialization, system information from several documents and files is saved. In order to avoid
consuming excessive disk space, the number of files collected can be limited. By default, a maximum of ten file of each type, including NSD,
is collected. The maximum number of NSD files can be overridden with this variable. Default setting is 10 files.
Max_NSDInfo_Files = number of files
There is no UI equivalent.
MinNewMailPoll
Applies to: Servers
Determines how often workstations can contact the server to see if new mail has arrived for the user.
This setting overrides the user's selection in the Mail Setup dialog box. You can increase the mail polling interval if there
are a large number of mail users on your server, and you want to prevent frequent polling from affecting server performance. There is no default setting.
MinNewMailPoll = number of minutes
There is no UI equivalent.
Move_Mail_File
_Expiration_Days
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the number of days that the Notes client updates mail file related Change Requests.
After this time period, these become obsolete Change Requests. For example: Move_Mail_File_Expiration_Days=30. There is no default setting.
Move_Mail_File
_Expiration_Days = number of days
There is no UI equivalent.
MSAACompatibility
Applies to: Clients
Due to some changes in the accessibility interface between Notes 6 and R5, some screen readers will announce
no values when reading a document, but will duplicate field names. Notes 6 can be made to emulate the R5 behavior by setting this .ini
file variable to V5. Screen reader vendors are aware of this issue and should be contacted about the current status of their products.
There is no default setting.
MSAACompatibility = V5
There is no UI equivalent.
MSAAFieldNameHelp
Applies to: Clients
By default, when the Notes client provides information to an accessibility aid it will re-use the field's name as
the field description if the description is blank. Likewise, it will use the field description as the field name if there is no field name.
This behavior can be disabled by setting this .ini file variable to -1. For usability purposes, it may be important for field name and field
description to be distinct. In this case the application developer will need to provide HTML 'Titles' (field name) and field help (for field descriptions)
explicitly. There is no default setting.
MSAAFieldNameHelp = -1
There is no UI equivalent.
MTCDailyTasksHour
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the time, in 24-hour format, when the Mail Tracking Collector (MTC) task performs the daily compaction of
the Domino MailTracker Store database (MTSTORE.NSF). Any value between 0 and 23 is an effective value. In the absence of this setting,
the Domino server sets the value to 2, and compaction occurs nightly at 2 AM. It is not necessary to specify the value for minutes.
For example: MTCDailyTasksHour=18:00
MTCDailyTasksHour = time
There is no UI equivalent.
MTMaxResponses
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the maximum number of message tracking responses returned from a query. The number of responses returned
will be less than or equal to the MTMaxResponses value. Whenever a query returns more than the MTMaxResponses limit, a message indicating
this appears on the Admininstration panel status line. There is no default, although if this setting is omitted, the maximum number of
message tracking responses returned from a query is 100.
Specifies the names of the secondary Domino Directories that Domino searches to verify recipient names in mail messages. By default, Domino searches only the primary Domino Directory, which is typically named NAMES.NSF. It is strongly recommended that you use directory assistance rather than this setting to do lookups in secondary Domino Directories. This notes.ini setting allows additional directories to be searched in the order in which they appear and stops searching when it finds a match in one of the databases. The file names can be up to 256 characters. Separate the list of directories with commas. Do not specify the NSF file extension.The server does not use this feature to look up additional Connection, Domain, or Server documents specified in additional directories. Ensure you create all of the necessary Connection, Domain, and Server documents in the primary Domino Directory.
To specify secondary Domino Directories that are replicated locally on the server, type the names of the directories without the NSF extension following
the name of the primary Domino Directory; for example: NAMES=NAMES, EASTNAME, WESTNAME
If secondary Domino Directories are not replicated locally, access them over the network by specifying server names in canonical format and their
Domino Directories as follows: CN=servername/OU=organizational unit/O=organization/!!filename. Specify as many organizational units as necessary.
For example, specify:
NAMES=NAMES,
CN=serverwest/OU=west/O=acme!!NAMES,
CN=servereast/OU=east/O=acme!!NAMES
If the name of the remote server is flat, omit the canonical format, for example: NAMES=NAMES, serverwest!!NAMES
If a remote server contains multiple Domino Directories, for example a hub server, you can point to each directory on the server. To do this, you must
repeat the server name for each directory, for example:
NAMES=NAMES,
CN=serverhub/O=acme!!NAMES1,
CN=serverhub/O=acme!!NAMES2
Do not add the name of a condensed Directory Catalog as a value for this setting. Use the Basics tab of the Server document in the Domino Directory to set
up a server to use a condensed Directory Catalog.
Names = name(s)
There is no UI equivalent.
NB_Collect_Response
_Times
Applies to: Servers
Add this notes.ini setting to the notes.ini file on the test driver to enable output of per-command response time. The resulting file is
added to the Results Directory and is assigned a file name RespTime_OutFile#, where # represents the driver number. Use NB_Collect_Response_Times with the
ResultsDirectory notes.ini setting. For example, the notes.ini would contain these settings:
NB_Collect_Response_Times=1

Secure Socket Layer (SSL) is enabled for the R6IMAP workload. Add this notes.ini setting to the client driver's notes.ini file to enable SSL.
To disable SSL in the R6IMAP workload, remove the notes.ini setting. There is no default setting.
NB_SSL_Option = Use_SSL
There is no UI equivalent.
NetWareSocket
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the IPX socket number used by the Domino server. There is no default
setting - Domino lets the IPX/SPX protocol stack assign a socket number dynamically.
NetWareSocket = socket number
There is no UI equivalent.
NetWareSpxSettings
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the decimal value of the Domino server's IPX socket. There is no default setting.
NetWareSpxSettings = value
There is no UI equivalent.
NewMailInterval
Applies to: Clients
Defines how often (in minutes) Notes checks the user's Inbox for new mail. Default setting is 1 minute.
NewMailInterval = number of minutes
UI equivalent: File - Preferences - User Preferences - Mail - Check for new mail every x minutes.
NewUserServer
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the registration server for a Domino domain, if this has not been specified in Administration
Preferences. There is no default setting.
NewUserServer = server
There is no UI equivalent.
NLCACHE_VERSION
Applies to: Servers
Introduced in Domino 7.0.3.This notes.ini variable is a fix to an enhancement to the NAMELookup cache that invalidates individual entries rather than entire groups. This enhancement is not enabled by default, and will only be enabled if the NAMELookup cache version has been increased to 4 by setting the value of this variable to 4. The default setting for the NAMELookup cache in Domino 7x is version 2.
NLCACHE_VERSION = 4
There is no UI equivalent.
NoDesignMenu
Applies to: Clients
Hides the Design menu on workstations. There is no default setting, although if this setting is omitted, the Design menu appears.
0 - Shows the Design menu
1 - Hides the Design menu
NoDesignMenu = value
There is no UI equivalent.

OLE, DDE, DIP, @Command
@DBLookup, @DB Column (when using nonNotes drivers)
@MailSend, @DDExxx
Launching file attachments
Subscribe on a Macintosh workstation
Use the following values to set this variable:
0 - Enables the workstation features listed above
1 - Disables the workstation features listed above
There is no default setting, although if this setting is omitted, these workstation features are enabled.
NoExternalApps = value
There is no UI equivalent.
No_Force_Activity
_Logging
Applies to: Servers
Controls whether the Statlog task automatically enables activity logging on all databases:
0 - Allows automatic activity logging on all databases
1 - Prevents automatic activity logging on all databases
Even when activity is not being recorded for the database, the information is still recorded in the Activity entry of the Database Usage view in the server's log file. There is no default setting, although if this setting is omitted, the Statlog server task enables the Record Activity option for every database on the server and adds 64K to each database.
No_Force_Activity_Logging = value
UI equivalent: None, although you can specify this setting in the NOTES.INI Settings tab of the Configuration Settings document in the Domino Directory.
NoMailMenu
Applies to: Clients
Hides the Mail menu. When set to 1, the Mail menu doesn't appear on workstations. This setting also sets the user's mail system to None.
There is no default setting, although if this setting is omitted, the Notes Mail menu appears.
NoMailMenu = value
There is no UI equivalent.
NoMsgCache
Applies to: Servers
Disables per-user message caching by the IMAP task. This can improve capacity (number of users) on a server by reducing memory consumption.
There is no default setting, although if this setting is omitted, IMAP per-user message caching will be enabled.
NoMsgCache = value
There is no UI equivalent.
NotesStreamPlatform
Default
Applies to: Servers and clients
The backend class NotesStream open method accepts a charset parameter of "UTF-16", for use with files containing serialized,
2-byte (16-bit) Unicode characters. If the file contains no leading byte-order-mark ("BOM") identifying the high/low ordering of each pair of bytes, the default
NotesStream behavior for a "UTF-16" charset is to treat the file as having big-endian byte ordering. This will be wrong some percentage of the time. In situations
where that percentage is high, an alternate default may be enabled with this notes.ini setting. There is no default setting. Setting this variable to 1 will cause
NotesStream to treat "UTF-16" charset files as big-endian on big-endian platforms, and little-endian on little-endian platforms. As before, the "UTF-16BE" and "UTF-16LE" charset values may be used (instead of the ambiguous "UTF-16") to influence which endian assumption is applied on a file-by-file basis.
NotesStreamPlatform
Default = 1
There is no UI equivalent.
NSF_Buffer
_Pool_Size
Applies to: Servers and clients
Specifies the maximum size (in bytes) of the NSF buffer pool, a section of memory dedicated to buffering I/O transfers
between Domino and disk storage. The maximum size depends on any limitations of the operating system, and the amount of system memory available. The minimum size
is 4MB. You can also use NSF_Buffer_Pool_Size_MB to set the maximum size of the NSF buffer pool. This is the same as NSF_Buffer_Pool_Size, except it specifies
the size in megabytes instead of bytes. Use NSF_Buffer_Pool_Size_MB to avoid the 2GB limitation that exists for NSF_Buffer_Pool_Size due to notes.ini variable limits. (notes.ini variables are signed variables, and cannot be larger than 2GB.)
The default setting is determined automatically by the server or workstation. (This is strongly recommended, except on partitioned servers.) The more memory is available,
the larger the server sets the default NSF_Buffer_Pool_Size. On workstations, the maximum setting of the NSF_Buffer_Pool_Size is 8MB (4MB for MAC). On the server,
the default maximum is determined to be between 1/8 and 3/8 of available physical memory, depending on the overall size of physical memory. The defaults are not
automatically adjusted on partitioned servers, so it will usually be necessary to adjust the maximum values in each partition to a fraction of memory such that
the memory used by all partitions adds up to approximately 1/4 to 3/8 of memory.
NSF_Buffer
_Pool_Size = number of bytes
There is no UI equivalent.
NSF_DbCache
_Disable
Applies to: Servers
Controls whether the database cache is enabled on a server. The database cache is enabled by default. There is no default setting.
0 - Enables the database cache
1 - Disables the database cache
NSF_DbCache
_Disable = value
There is no UI equivalent.
NSF_DbCache
_Maxentries
Applies to: Servers
Determines the number of databases that a server can hold in its database cache at one time, where n is the number of databases.
Increasing the database cache size can improve system performance but requires additional memory. The minimum number of databases allowed in the cache at
one time is 25; the maximum is approximately 2000, depending on the server platform. There is no default setting, although if this setting is omitted,
the number of databases that the server can hold in its cache at one time is either 25, or the NSF_Buffer_Pool_Size value divided by 300K (whichever is greater).
NSF_DbCache
_Maxentries = number of databases
There is no UI equivalent.
NSF_Quota_Method
Applies to: Servers
This variable reflects the mail file database quota enforcement method enabled in the Server document, where n indicates the specific method.
If quota enforcement methods are enabled, whenever the Router delivers mail, it compares the current size of the destination mail file against its configured
database quota or threshold. If the size exceeds one of these, the Router takes appropriate action. There is no default setting.
1 - check space used in file when adding a note
2 - check file size when extending the file
3 - check file size when adding a note
NSF_Quota_Method = value
UI equivalent: None, although you can specify this setting in the Quota enforcement field on the Transactional Logging tab of the Server document.
Num_Compact
_Rename_Retries
Applies to: Servers
Domino attempts only once to rename a database that was copy-style compacted. You can request additional attempts by specifying
a value in the Num_Compact_Rename_Retries setting in the notes.ini file. Domino tries to rename until it succeeds or the number of retries is exhausted.
For example, to request that Domino try once again to rename, specify Num_Compact_Rename_Retries = 1; to request that Domino try 5 more times to rename,
specify Num_Compact_Rename_Retries = 5. There is no default entry but in the absence of the setting, Domino attempts just once to rename a database that
was copy-style compacted.
Num_Compact
_Rename_Retries = number of times to retry
There is no UI equivalent.
NWNDSPassword
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the password for Domino to log in to the Novell Directory Service (NDS) tree on system start-up. Until this setting is added to
the notes.ini file, an administrator must log in to the NDS tree before starting the Domino server. There is no default setting.
NWNDSPassword = NDS password
There is no UI equivalent.
NWNDSUserID
Applies to: Servers
Specifies the user ID for Domino to log into the Novell Directory Service (NDS) tree on system start-up. Until this setting is added to
the notes.ini file, an administrator must log into the NDS tree before starting the Domino server. There is no default setting.
