Hi Herwig,

Thanks for the response, but I think that you are wrong. When we run the
install it asks whether we are installed onto a system running notes 4.5 or
4.6.1. The problems that we are seeing occur on both Notes 4.6.1 and 4.6.3.

        Hi,

        The notes agent is not valid for Notes version 4.6 and up

        Subject: Problems with Lotus Notes Agent

        G'day,

        We are starting to implement the Lotus Notes Agent for our Notes
Mail
        servers and have come across a problem.

        First, some configuration details:

        Lotus Notes 4.6.1 on WindowsNT
        Notes Agent 2.1.8A
        ADSM Server 3.1.2.1 on AIX 4.2.1
        WindowsNT 4.0 SP3

        We had problems a few days back with users getting errors saying
that their
        Notes database was locked. This was while the Notes Agent was
running. We
        stopped the agent but the lock persisted. So I guess that it is
possible
        that it was something else that was doing the locking, but installed
the
        agent was the only recent change to the box.

        We have been trying to replicate this problem on our development
server but
        have been unable to. However we have been 'successful' in getting
the Agent
        to fail in the same way while Notes has the .nsf file open (via the
Notes
        server). The error is:

        ADSTAR Distributed Storage Manager
        ADSMConnect Agent for Lotus Notes - Version 2.1.8A
        (Built with Lotus Notes 4.5 API)
        (C)  Copyright IBM Corporation, 1990, 1998, All Rights Reserved.
        NOTES: This database is currently being used by someone else.  In
order to
        share a Notes database, all users must use a Notes Server instead of
a File
        Server.

        However, while Notes has the .nsf open via the server, causing the
Agent to
        fail, we can open the same .nsf file locally on the machine running
the
        agent.

        What are we doing wrong?


        regards,

        Trevor
