GETTING CONNECTED

Using a LAN, cable, or DSL to access Notes mail and other databases
If your physical connection is a cable modem with a cable (television) service connection, or a digital subscriber line (DSL), Notes works as if you're on a LAN. Therefore, you can use the same or a very similar configuration for these three connection methods.

To set up a LAN, cable, or DSL connection

1. Make sure you have the name of your home server (for example, mailbag.east.com/acme).

2. Choose File - Preferences - Client Reconfiguration Wizard.

3. Select "Domino server" and in the drop-down list, select "Local Area Network."

4. Click Next and answer the questions.

Note After you complete this type of configuration, the current Location document in your Personal Address Book contains the name of your home server and Notes mail file name and path (which Notes learns from the server that identifies you).
