We are running Notes r5 (5.0.08 and 5.0.11). The problem we are having is with Windows XP Pro. THe problem is slightly different depending on the version. In 5.0.08, if users are not members of the local admin group, when they attempt to open up Notes, they get a splash screen (Notes logo comes up and goes away), and are unable to run Notes. If they are admin, they can open up fine. In 5.0.11, non-admin users can open up Notes, but it will prompt to choose the user.id file (it is looking in the correct folder). They can choose th file and run, but the next time they open up Notes, they have to choose it again. I cannot find anything on their support page in regards to this. Help!!

We too are having a similar challenge. We are running 5.0.9c and 5.0.11. Only some of our clients are not able to open thier Notes client unless they have local Admin rights. We have not experienced any problems with relation to the id file. Have you, or anyone else come up with any ideas to get around this? I need to roll out WinXP to almost 1000 clients in the next year and it would kinda nice to give everyone in the world Admin rights!
