How to Create Resource Reservation Database in Domino 8.5.2

Here are the basic steps

Creating the Resource Reservations database
  • The Resource Reservations database consists of three documents: Site Profile, Resource, and Reservation.
  • A Site Profile document identifies the site where particular resources are located.
  •  Template Name : RESRC8.NTF
 Please see screen shots # 1 to 4




 

Creating the database ACL for the Resource Reservations database

This will Assign the CreateResource role to anyone who needs to create a site or a resource.
Required Role Name : CreateResource role

Here we are giving authorization to Administrator to create Resources and Site Profile documents
in Resource and Reservation database

 Please see screen shots # 5 to 6





Setting up Site Profile and Resource documents
 
Step-1 : Complete All steps upto now.
Step-2 : Create a New Site Profile  (Head-Quarters)
Step-3 : Create a New Resource document

 Please see screen shots # 7 to 13










How to Use  it :

Go to More > Preferences.Calendar & Todo/Rooms and Resources tab
Change your Preferred site to "
Head-Quarters"

 

Start Reserving Rooms and Resources :)
(See Screen 14 )

One of the smartest and latest tool of accessing Domino Email server is Lotus notes rich client.It is an IBM product.The latest version (8.5.2) of it has many features for end user.Let's see how we customize these for end user purpose.

How to Add Lotus Notes widgets

Following URL has most popular widgets:

link 1

link 2

Quick Links:
  • Lots of widgets are in this link and you can download them to your client.
  • Lotus Notes ReCon sidebar plug-in - Administrator widget for Lotus Notes, which allows you to quickly work with remote server consoles
Example:

  • Select the menu option File > Preferences > Widgets.
  • Make sure the option for Show Widget Toolbar is checked.
  • Open the Sidebar in the Notes client and expand the "My Widgets" panel.

  • You may also see this as a video here.
Let me know if you found any difficulty to add. :)

Network Security and Cryptography

Performance Analysis of AES and 3DES algorithms

The importance of data exchange over the public Internet and other media types are increasing, and so is the value of such exchanged data. Inexorably the importance of data encryption to provide security is greatly stressed. The two main characteristics that identify and differentiate one encryption algorithm from another are its ability to secure the protected data against attacks and its speed and efficiency in doing so. This project is an attempt to present a fair comparison of speed and efficiency between the two most common encryption standards – Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and Triple Data Encryption Standard (3DES or TDES).

Implementation:
The analysis is performed for the following two scenarios.
  • Local Encryption
Data on a host is encrypted and decrypted locally using the different variants of the two
ciphers and performance will be analyzed.
  • Transferring Encrypted data over a LAN
Performance will be evaluated as data in a client machine is encrypted and decrypted using the different variants of the two ciphers and transmitted to a server over a LAN.

Summary:
Advance Encryption Standard (AES) and Triple DES (TDES or 3DES) are commonly used block ciphers approved by NIST. Currently the choice between AES and 3DES depends on the application. The project analyses the performance of the two ciphers under varying conditions with the intention of concluding their aptitudes in different applications.
