Apache Front-End to Domino

04/08/2007 12:28 PM By Keith Strickland
Excerpt: Apache Front-End to Domino Summary This document was created because of a need to keep my current Photo Gallery available on my website and get rid of using Apache on another port in the backend just for the Gallery. What I've come up with is using Apache for all the web requests and Domino to run the Blog and Domino type applications. Also, I have recently been approached about hosting html only websites here on my new server and this setup would be optimal for this type of solution. Also, s...

04/08/2007 11:56 AM By Keith Strickland
Excerpt: During my career as a Lotus Notes/Domino Administrator I've found it necessary to sometimes have to write my own agents, applications, scripts, etc. to perform certain administrative functions. These are some of the classes along with the pertinent methods and properties, of which I use most often. Now, I'm not trying to write an entire book here, just trying to make you aware that these functions exist and can make your life MUCH easier. I'm also not going to go into a lot of detail regarding e...

Running a Web Server behind a Linksys DSL Router

04/08/2007 11:51 AM By Keith Strickland
Excerpt: Running a Web Server behind a Linksys DSL Router Summary This document was created because of a need to move my web site behind my Linksys DSL Router / Switch / Wireless AP. This is really my preferred way to run my web server as the Router acts as a hardware firewall and negates the need for so many rules on my Web Server firewall (See Figure 4). Background Like I said above. This is the way I would prefer to run my web server. This way I only have to have minimal rules on the Web Server...

Samba based Primary Domain Controller

04/08/2007 11:43 AM By Keith Strickland
Excerpt: Samba based Primary Domain Controller Summary This document was created because of a need to increase security on my home network and provide a way for my family to get the same start menu, desktop and internet favorites no matter which machine they logged in from. Setting up a Primary Domain Controller was the perfect solution because Windows profiles are stored in a common location on the server. This also allows me to create a default policy to help control what the kids can do on their com...

Setup Courier IMAP with XMail to use Squirrelmail

04/08/2007 11:53 AM By Keith Strickland
Excerpt: Summary This document was created from a need to use Squirrelmail with an XMail backend. XMail was desired due to it's capabilities (pop3 retrieval, smtp server) and the fact that it uses Maildirs instead of a mailbox. I tried to get dbmail to work on my server without success (Many thanks to Aaron Johnson for putting up with me). Background Like I said above XMail is a mail server for Linux (I believe there is a version for windows also but don't quote me on that) which is very robust and...

Using lsxldap.dll for Directory Lookups

04/08/2007 12:29 PM By Keith Strickland
Excerpt: Using lsxldap for Directory Lookups Introduction I've used the lsxldap tool for quite some time now to do e-mail look-ups in web applications. It isn't a very pretty way of accomplishing LDAP lookups but it does work and it works rather well I might add. The company I work for isn't a big Notes / Domino shop, as a matter of fact the powers that be don't want Notes / Domino in their company as it is viewed as Legacy technology. Quite frankly I just think that they don't understand what it is an...
