DECS security issues
There are two reported problems regarding security information using:
- DECS administrator (Notes browsing and initialize keys)
- LC LSX against the Notes or file connectors
DECS administrator problem description: Attempting to browse Notes when creating an activity or using the Initialize Keys functionality may generate a LotusScript error regarding access to unrestricted agents. The DECS application must be allowed to run unrestricted agents for these capabilities to work.
LC LSX problem description: Agents or other LotusScript code which uses the Notes or File connectors must be signed with a Notes ID that has permission to run unrestricted agents. This also applies to any script libraries used by this code. Specifically, connections through these connectors will be blocked with an error unless the signing Notes ID has permission to run unrestricted agents.
Solution: There are two ways to address this error (in both cases):
- Add the ID "Lotus Notes Template Development/Lotus Notes" to the "Run Unrestricted Agents" field in the Domino Server's entry in the N&A book containing that server. This field is found under the Security tab.
- Resign the DECS Administrator database with a Notes ID which already has permission to run unrestricted agents. Resign the DECS Administrator through the Domino Administrator client - not through the normal Notes client.
