When using the Web Administrator client, you need to have set up a server-based certification authority (CA) to register Notes users. The Web administrator, as well as the server on which the Web Administrator database resides, must be listed as a registration authority (RA) for that certifier. You must assign the RA role in the Domino Administrator client, not in the Web Administrator. To assign the RA role, use the Modify Certifier tool on the Configuration panel.

Note The Registration Preferences (from File - Preferences - Administration Preferences) that can be set in user registration with the Domino Administrator do not apply to user registration with the Web Administrator. During user registration on the Web, only registration settings set through policies or through the server-based CA apply. Other settings are entered manually or are defaults.

To use Advanced user registration with the Web Administrator

1. Make sure you have the following before you begin registration:

• The [UserCreator] role in the Domino Directory
• The registration authority (RA) designation for whatever CA (Certificate Authority) that is selected for user registration. The Domino Web Administrator requires the user of the server-based CA.

3. From the Servers pane, select Domino Directories, and then click People.

4. From the Tools pane, click People - Register.

5. Choose a CA-configured certifier.

6. (Optional) Choose an Explicit policy.

7. (Optional) If you would like the selections for CA Certifier and Explicit policy to be set as the default, click the check box "Save as default."
