I have installed Lotus Notes and Client on a stand alone m/c. I have set up TCP/IP as protocol. The client IP is 127.0.0.1 and server IP is 192.168.3.1. These are defined in Hosts file and the Network has been configured properly.I have installed the ND6 Server ( set up the server and is running) and i plan to install the Administration Client on the same machine. When i ask for the client to connect to the server over the LAN, there is an error informing that "either the server is not found or the server is not running".However, the server is active and i check it with domino console scripts sh ser and sh users. Pls help solving this classic problem.

I'm not familiar with Lotus so I'll make a suggestion about the TCP/IP configuration. Try replacing the 127.0.0.1 address with 192.168.3.1. Maybe it will activate some kind of handshake between the server app and the client app.

Actually I would do the reverse. When in the client put the server IP as local host (127.0.0.1).
