So the SQL Server guy stops
by and says, "Hey, we want to create some reports of Notes data and
we only know how to use SQL Server to do it. Do you mind exporting it to
a delimited text file and saving it to this restricted folder on the file
server? Here’s the username and password of a special Windows account with
rights to the folder. Oh, and we need it to run on a scheduled basis so
everything is automated. Thanks!"
So I think, "Gee, dumping Notes
data to a text file...piece of cake. Saving that file somewhere...yeah
whatever. Run the export on a schedule...no problem since Domino has scheduled
agents. Save the file to a *restricted* folder on the file server...with
a different set of credentials...uh, I don’t think so."
At this point I figure we just need
to give the Windows machine on which the Domino server resides access to
said restricted directory, since after all it is the server doing the work.
I’ve never considered the need to output a file...

Plus this month’s main feature is about putting Notes on Linux Desktop machines, which should be pretty cool too. Hope to see you there. Here are the details:

It took a visit from my non-techie Canadian friend Sean to finally get the whole Skype internet phone calling thing figured out. In about five minutes we had downloaded the Skype client (www.Skype.com), installed it, registered my username, and called Sean’s mother outside Toronto (on her regular phone) using just the built-in speaker/mic of my Thinkpad T42. The sound quality was amazing, and is even better for Skype to Skype (i.e. Computer-To-Computer calls). Sk...
