I have written 9 routines in the last few weeks in Powershell for Domino, they all appear to do what I need except 1!
This is the RegisterNewUser method, which does everything except the Email address. If I setup a user via Domino Administrator, I get everything including the email address ie internal address that is 'bob patz/smallhome'.
If I use my code this uses the registration process but all I end up with is the domain part of the internal email address '@smallhome'.
Does anyone know how to correct this? I don't think powershell uses the @formula language in any form, so I assume i somehow need to find the right column in a document or database and append the fullname in there somehow.
Is there anyone out there who can help in anyway?
regards Mark
<#TOP TIP: THIS MUST RUN UNDER POWERSHELL (X86), ELSE IT WILL NOT WORK!!
This Powershell Function was created in March 2020 by (myself) Mark Baker as 'a' just to see if I can de-mystify some of the Domino Database stucture, after running short bits of code and using Get-Member on some parts of it and looking at online code snippets and reading some of the online info from IBM I have come up with the function below to Create a New Lotus Notes User.
#Original Code: 31/03/2020 by MBaker
A lot of work testing and diagnosing the different settings and values EVENTUALLY lead me to getting this working, as at 08/04/2020 I just need to work out the settings for setting the correct email address per person.
#This is how to use this function:
New-DominoUserRegistration "hazell" "C:\Program Files\IBM\Lotus\Notes\Data\ids\people\dhazell.id" "CN=Dom-01/O=Smallhome" "Daniel" "" "swindon" "Work" "comment" "mail\dhazell" " " "password" 176 "dhazell"
Main use of this function is to connect to an IBM Domino Server and Create a New lotus notes user.
