CSNCurrent en:Tab "Cryptshare Server"

Use this tab to define connection settings to the Cryptshare Server. The Cryptshare for Notes application needs to be registered at the Cryptshare Server as part of the setup process. The registration process creates a file called "client.store". This file contains information the Cryptshare for Notes uses to authenticate at the Cryptshare Server. To register, proceed as follows:

Enter the Cryptshare Server URL.
Set up the proxy configuration.
Create or select a directory for the client.store file and a directory for the files to be transferred in the file system of your Domino Server before proceeding with the following steps.

Please make sure to set Read, Write and Delete rights to the directories for your Domino Server.

Create the client.store file by clicking on the button .
Click the button in the line "Client ID" to create a new Client-ID.

Error creating ClientID

If Cryptshare for Notes reports an error when creating the Client ID, please check the network credentials of the Domino Server (system user).

Click the button to copy the Client ID into the clipboard in the next dialogue.
Open the web admin front-end of your Cryptshare Server and paste the Client ID into the corresponding field in the tab "Add-On-Products --> Cryptshare for Notes".

Fill out the "Description" field and add the entries with the button (right of the "Client ID" input field) and save your entries with the button .
