Welcome @stoeps.de, the blog of Christoph Stoettner

I work at Vegard IT GmbH as a senior consultant with a focus on collaboration software, Kubernetes, security and automation. I mainly deal with HCL Connections, WebSphere Application Server, Kubernetes, Ansible, Terraform and Linux.

Sometimes my daily work results in technical talks and blog articles, which you can follow here more or less regularly. You can find the presentations in the main menu under public speaking .

I created a list of tools I use regularly, most of which have been released under an open source license.

In my spare time I read a lot, test all kinds of technical software and gadgets and try to follow about 200 RSS feeds.
Here you can find a collection of them.

This is my private blog, all opinions are my own.

Lotus Traveler 8.5.2.2 implements mail encryption for Android devices

With last update vor Lotus Traveler 8.5.2.2 there came a new feature for Android devices. You can read and send encrypted mails and you can sign mails with your notes id. You can click on details in new mails, there you find the new checkboxes for encrypt or sign. Long needed feature and it works better than Lotus Companion App on iPhone, because the id password is cached for a short time. Update After some testing i wrote down some points on this new feature. First of all i asked me, why i didn’t read anything about it. I found no document on IBM, which announces encryption on Android before 8.

Manage message signatures with Lotus Notes Traveler

You can use policy setting document “Mail settings” to deploy a standard message disclaimer for your users. First you have to configure your domino server which makes the smtp conversion of internet mails. For this server open the “configuration document” and check if “Message disclaimers” is enabled. Now we need a policy for all traveler users, or if you want to deploy personalized signatures, for each traveler user. I created a dynamic policy (explicit policy document and set of group/user in “policy assignment”) for my traveler user and made a mail setting document for the disclaimer: “Notes client can add disclaimer” to disabled: So the server will append/prepend the disclaimer text.

Connections 3 on Ubuntu some news

Finally i managed to install Connections 3 on Ubuntu Server, but i didn’t got a one machine setup running. My idea was a demo install for testing issues. I can’t find DB2 32-Bit for Linux, so i decided to use Ubuntu 64 Bit and all other components 64 Bit. I got error after enabling ssl on IHS, because the ssl Plugin wasn’t found. I think that the .so file is 32 bit and can’t work with 64 bit Linux. So i make a two machine setup. One 64 bit ubuntu vm with db2 9.7 and tdi 7 64 bit Other machine is 32 bit and host Websphere Application Server, IHS and Connections
