XFOR: Adding the Exchange Server Address Book to Lotus Notes Client

ID: Q236157


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5


SYMPTOMS

After you successfully install the Microsoft Exchange Connector for Lotus Notes, you may find that the Address Book file, Exchange.nsf (the default name of the target address book), does not appear when you address messages in the Lotus Notes client.


CAUSE

The Lotus Notes server's Notes.ini file does not contain a pointer to the Exchange.nsf database.


RESOLUTION

Edit the Lotus Notes server's Notes.ini file. Change the line that reads

NAMES=names.nsf
to
NAMES=names.nsf,exchange.nsf
After you make the change and restart the Notes server, Lotus Notes client users have the option of selecting names from the Exchange Server Address Book as well as the Lotus Notes Name and Address Book.
