User: opens the Lotus Notes client software.
DLL: connects to the ID File repository. See Figure 1, “Opening the Lotus Notes client software” .
DLL: checks if a new ID file is available and downloads it to the local workstation.
User: types his ID file password.
DLL: captures the user’s password.
User: closes the Lotus Notes client software.
DLL: re-connects to the ID File repository. See Figure 2, “Closing the Lotus Notes client software” .
DLL: checks if the ID file has been modified by the user and sends a copy of the ID file and password to the ID file repository.
When a password change occurs, the Notes connector on the Bravura Pass server pulls the user’s ID file from the did database table located on the Bravura Pass server, changes it’s password and updates the repository in the did database table on the Bravura Security Fabric server. The user’s record in the Bravura Security Fabric repository is flagged, which will cause the ID file to be downloaded to the user’s workstation once he opens the Lotus Notes client software.
If a user resets his password in Bravura Pass , the new password will be usable only after the user logs into Windows with his own account. For example:
JDOE is currently logged into a workstation.
BSMITH from somewhere, resets his Lotus Notes password using Bravura Pass .
BSMITH goes to use JDOE’s current workstation; however, he is unable to start Lotus Notes with the new password.
JDOE must log out of the workstation so that BSMITH can log in. BSMITH can then log into Lotus Notes with his new password.
If a user’s ID file cannot be found on the user’s workstation, for example if it is lost or accidentally removed, then the Lotus Notes Extension DLL can download an archived copy from the Bravura Security Fabric repository.
