Lotus Notes FAQ


How do you get the Notes server to run in the background?

Run this as part of your system startup code in /etc/inittab:

if [ -d /usr/lotus/notes/notesr4 \
   -a -f /opt/lotus/bin/server \
   -a -f /usr/lotus/notes/autostart.server ]; then
  PATH=/opt/lotus/bin:/usr/lotus/notes/notesr4:$PATH su notes -c \
     'server </dev/null >/dev/null 2>&1' &
  sleep 10;
  echo 'Notes server started'
fi
