2) Add yourself to the list of users, and assign yourself Manager access (User type: Person) and Administrator/Content Manager role(s).




Note: To allow anonymous access to DocPublisher, add Anonymous entry to the ACL, and set its access level to Reader, with no additional roles. In addition, enable the Write public documents option. If you want to prohibit anonymous access, do not add Anonymous ACL entry. Instead of that, add the users that you want to allow to read the documents, and set their access level to Reader with no roles (also enable the Write public documents option).



3) Now you need to copy the database to the server. Right-click the bookmark in your Notes client again and create a New Copy.




4) Locate the server to which you want to copy the database, change the Title and File name if needed and click OK.




5) Next, you need to sign the database. Open Domino Administrator, locate your DocPublisher database and click on ‘Sign’.



6) Selecte the ‘Active Server’s ID’ option and click OK. The database can now be opened in your web browser.


7) To open the database in a web browser, type your database URL in the address bar and press enter. Then log in with your Domino user name/password and click on the Administration button.

9) Click on the ‘Manage users’ link.

8) Note: To view all administration options, click on the ‘Show all options’ link.

Note: When opening the database for the first time you will need to enter the license key provided to you.



10) To add a new user, click on the ‘Add Users’ button (you can also remove users in this section, or edit users roles).



11) Use the ‘Address Book’ button to select user(s) from your Notes Address Book (you can select only individual users, not user groups).
