Today’s 7.0.1 client installation update (issue)
Tags :Domino 7
I have seen this in previous version but do
not like the way it functions if it continues on through the versions.
I accepted it at first when the idea of multi-user installation was
new. I went ahead and upgraded a couple multi-user roaming workstations
yesterday to see how that went.
The installation found the path and previous install as multi-user perfectly.
That was a good sign. It forced the multi-user option and gave
the same pieces that were currently installed on the machine. The
code went on flawlessly.
The problem started when I launched the client. It forced the setup
to be run again choosing the user name, home server, TCP setting for the
hostname and everything else. Even though I did not have cleanup
set on those workstations. (Yes this is my network at home that I
totally redid this weekend but that is another posting). So I went
through and recreated the setup for each account in roaming to make the
kids life easier. They never knew the difference, but then again
what user knows what the admins do on the back end do they? LOL
