How to synchronize personal address book with web access in Domino 8

In Domino 7.x, you need to periodically synchronise the Web Access Address book with the personal address book using a menu item. If you have the Domino 8.x client installed, the first problem you see is this option is not available. This is because this synchronization is now automated.

In the replication tab of the Notes Client a new entry is now available. Its marked as "Synchronize Contacts". But this is disabled and cannot be run in this state. So the first thing to do is to get this enabled.


To enable this entry you need to go to Preferences in File Menu item in the Lotus Client. Select
Contacts from the left hand Column and make sure the "Enable Synchronization Contacts on Replicator" is enabled.



This will enable the replicator entry and now you can run this to start the immediate replication and schedule this agent to run periodically.
