Administrator installation
If you are installing Domino Access for Microsoft Outlook on a workstation for an end user(s), Windows security requires that you assume the identity of the user for whom you are creating the DAMO user profile. Creating a profile in any other way will hide that profile from the intended user.

There are two ways to create user profiles:


Note For a multi-user installation, each registered user on the workstation must be a member of the Power Users group to be able to select their profile when DAMO starts.

Silent install

Use the silent installation to install Domino Access for Microsoft Outlook and create a profile without end user involvement. This process uses the inherent InstallShield capabilities that call a setup file containing the user's connection information to the Domino server.

For example, to set up Domino Access for Microsoft Outlook for multiple users on one workstation, you can run Silent Install and assume the users' logon rights with the RunAs capability for each user.

There is one setup file for each user. The setup file is a text file that contains the following connection information:


For example:
The DAMO setup executable is called using the following syntax:
For example:
Note The syntax must be exact. Notice that after /v there is no space before the quotation mark ("). Also, there is a closing quotation mark (") at the end of the line.

Using RunAs on Windows XP

Option 1 - Using the installation wizard
1. As the Windows administrator, run setup choosing the desired options, including either the Single User or the Multi-User install options.

3. Click Start - Programs - IBM Lotus Domino Access for Microsoft Outlook, and then right click on "Create New MAPI Profile."

4. Choose "Run As..."

5. In the Run As dialog, select "The following user:"

6. Enter the user's domain, user name, and password.

7. Enter the connection information as described in Create a User Profile for DAMO section in the End user installation topic.

Option 2 - Using the silent install
1. Open a DOS window (cmd.exe) by clicking Start - Programs - Accessories, and then right-click Command Prompt.

2. Choose Run As ...

3. In the Run As dialog, select "The following user:"

4. Enter the user's domain, user name, and password.

5. At the DOS prompt, enter the setup syntax as described in the "Silent install" section above.

Using RunAs on Windows 2000

Option 1 - Using the installation wizard

6. Create the user profile.

Option 2 - Using the silent install
1. Open a DOS window (cmd.exe) by clicking Start - Programs - Accessories - Command Prompt.

2. Use the RunAs command to open another DOS window so that anything run in that window will be run with rights of the user who opened that DOS window.


3. From that new window run the install as that user:
4. Although it is more complicated, the RunAs command can be used without the need to open a new DOS window. Use the following syntax, which is a combination of the Windows RunAs syntax (RunAs /?) and the silent install capability.
