>1.1. Why a Domino R5 installation mini-HOWTO?</H2
|
|
><P

|
|
I faced Domino for Linux in February 2002. It happened because of unstable
|
|
Domino R5 functioning on an Windows NT Server with powerful hardware
|
|
resources. I read the <SPAN
|
|
CLASS="QUOTE"
|
|
>"Understanding Domino for Linux"</SPAN
|
|
> white paper and I
|
|
decided to move our Domino server to Linux. My first Linux distribution was
|
|
Mandrake 8.1. I know this French distribution is one of the easiest and
|
|
friendly for a newbie. Now it has worked pretty well for more than 10 months
|
|
without any interference. Cool :) A few months ago the chairmen decided to
|
|
implement one more Domino server at our high school; we had no money to
|
|
purchase a powerful server and I made up my mind to deploy it on Linux
|
|
again with existing hardware. Now we have a very stable second one on SuSE
|
|
7.3 (I have studied this distribution already) with poor hardware (CPU:
|
|
Celeron 400, RAM: 192MB, HDD: 20GB IDE).
|
|
|
|
</P
|
|
><P
|
|

|
|
As time permits, I hope to provide hints and tips for improving
|
|
performance of Domino on Linux, and for configuring the environment on
|
|
various Linux distributions.

If you plan to save your employer's money and get amazing stability (and
|
|
save your time) you should think about Domino on Linux. This mini-HOWTO
|
|
helps you to install and configure Domino on the Linux distributions
|
|
supported by IBM Lotus Software (SuSE) and others (Mandrake). I describe
|
|
specific prerequisites and quirks for each distribution. I do not want
|
|
anyone to repeat my sleepless nights and all-day-long red eyes.
