• Basic services (required)
• Full-Text Indexing
• LotusScript and unscheduled agents
• Java(TM) classes and applets
• Custom Services
• MAPI enablement
• Default Language

Select the appropriate boxes so that only files the users actually need are downloaded to their machine.

MAPI enablement is available only when you use the Extended Mail Template (MAIL6EX.NTF) for Web mail.

Choose a default language for the Web Control menu and the IBM® Lotus® Domino(TM) Sync Manager. Users can override this setting by selecting a different language from the Web Control menu.

Enter the name of custom service files to be unpacked and executed on the user's computer during installation of the subscription. Custom services have the following syntax: CustomServiceName [Setup.exe [SetupArguments]]. For example:

mycustomname mysetupfile.exe -z -r -u

If you specify more than custom service, separate the services with commas. For example:

mycustomname mysetupfile.exe -z -r -u, mycustomname2 mysetupfile2.exe -z -r -u

For more information on custom file sets, see the topic "Creating custom file sets for a DOLS subscription."

All required files and directories must be specified relative to the server's data directory.

For tips on using directory names and wildcards when you specify more than one Required file or Optional file, see the topic "Creating multiple database DOLS subscriptions."

All optional files and directories must be specified relative to the server's data directory.

Optional databases replicate as "stubs," meaning only the design is replicated. Users can open Sync Properties, click the Sync Options tab, select the database, and deselect the disable box. The data is then replicated at the next synchronization. To save disk space, users can disable an optional file, and the data is removed at next synchronization.

Enable replication of optional files by default:

Select this box to automatically download and synchronize new databases found in the subscription's directories on the server. For example, if one of the optional databases is designed to create new databases, the new databases are automatically downloaded and synchronized.

Select this box to install a directory catalog with the subscription. Then enter the file name, including directory path, of the catalog database on the server (for example, dircats\mydircat.nsf). If the server administrator has specified a default offline directory catalog for the server by adding $DOLSDirectoryCatalog = nameofcatalog.nsf to the NOTES.INI on the server, you can leave this field blank and the server's default offline catalog is replicated with the subscription. A catalog filename specified here will override the server's default offline directory catalog.

Choose the "Replicate as an optional file" checkbox to specify the catalog as an optional file. If the directory catalog is specified an optional file, the "Enable replication of optional files by default" checkbox must be checked for the catalog to replicate the first time.

In order for Domino Web Access for Web Mail users, to take a directory catalog offline, you must add the name of a directory catalog, including the NSF extension, to the $DOLSDirectoryCatalog setting in the server's NOTES.INI file.

For more information on using directory catalogs with DOLS, see the topic "Adding a directory catalog to the application" before adding one to your subscription.

Select the box to enable encryption. Then select the level of encryption. Encryption prevents an unauthorized user from accessing the offline subscription’s data using another software product.

• If the subscription has multiple databases, all of these databases are encrypted.
• If the subscription has a shared file, you must encrypt all susbcriptions sharing the file. An unencrypted subscription may not be able to open an encrypted file.
• Using strong encryption causes a database to open more slowly than it would using a weaker encryption or no encryption.

Select this box to preset a default, date-based filter on all databases created offline. For example, if you specify 30 days, only documents created or modified in the last 30 days will synchronize. Once installed, users can reset this for each subscription file using the Domino Sync Manager.

• Limit database size to [number] MB: Select this box to specify the maximum size in megabytes of the offline database. You cannot specify a number less than 10.
• Limit subscription size to [number] MB: Select this box to specify the maximum size in megabytes of the entire offline subscription. You cannot specify a number less than 10.

Note Be careful not to specify a size that may be too limiting. The offline subscription may not be fully operational if synchronization is interrupted prematurely.

If warnings are displayed during the synchronization process, and this option is selected, each warning message will display.

For example, a user installs this subscription with the directory catalog dircat1.nsf. If the user then installs another subscription that uses dircat1.nsf., and also selects this option, the two subscriptions share dircat1.nsf.

All subscriptions that share the same file must be either encrypted or not encrypted. Non-encrypted subscriptions may not be able to share a file that is encrypted.

Select this box to push changes made to the active Off-Line Subscription Configuration Profile Document (on the server), down to the Domino Sync Manager (on the client), without requiring a reinstallation of the subscription.

The following are the only settings and actions that cannot be changed on the user's computer unless the user deletes and reinstalls the subscription.

Encryption

Per-user shared subscriptions

Multi-user data directories

Passthru server settings

Optional TCP/IP addresses

A change in the subscription title

Adding new services or custom filesets

Deleting or moving the main.nsf

Force user to accept subscription changes. This box is only visible when "Push subscription settings to Domino Sync Manager" is selected. Select this box to force the user to accept changes in the Offline Subscription Configuration Profile document. Not selecting this box allows users to prevent the changes from occurring on their subscriptions.

Make sync options read-only. Select this box to dim the Sync Options settings in the Properties dialog - Sync Options tab of the subscription on the user's computer. You can push this to users by selecting it before they install the subscription, or by using the "Push subscription settings" feature.

Then enter the name of the primary and secondary addresses. If users connect to the host server through a passthru server, the addresses must be for the passthru server.

Alternatively, an administrator can configure these settings for all the subscriptions hosted on a particular server by adding addresses to the $DOLS_TCPIPAddress and $DOLS_TCPIPAddress2 settings in the server's NOTES.INI.
