The instructions below apply to the following server platforms:
W32
Linux
Solaris
AIX
iSeries/OS400
zSeries/OS390
zLinux
First, shut down the Domino server and back up the current Domino files listed below; this allows us the ability to revert to the prior configuration if needed. The backup can be done by renaming the files in place; however, all templates (*.ntf if one is present) and databases (Forms*.nsf) should be moved from their locations.
Files: dwa7.cab , dwa7W.cab , dwa7res_en.dll, inres6_en.dll , iNotes6.cab , iNotes6W.cab
Location of these files: <Domino server data directory>/domino/html
File: Forms7.nsf , Forms6.nsf
Location of this file: <Domino server data directory>/INOTES
NOTE: The Domino data directory will vary depending on how the server was installed. If you are running a UNIX version you may need to set the file permissions on the files above; see below for examples.
Second, replace the files with those from the hotfix zip file.
The *.cab and *.dll files are Windows-specific and should contain the IE7 fixes. These should not be installed on non-Windows systems.
These files are installed on all servers (UNIX, iSeries, zSeries, w32), at the time when you connect with the DWA client, it will be determined what files need to be installed, if you are using IE, the new activeX controls will be installed.
The information below may or may not reflect how your current UNIX environment is set up. It is supplied as basic help, we recommend for all platforms that the file being replaced should be backed up prior to the installation process.
NOTE: The Domino data directory will vary depending on how the server was installed.
First set permissions:
At the console login as "root", this will be needed to backup, set file permission's, group permissions and execution access.
To install the hotfix, you should first backup the current domino files, this allows the ability to revert to the prior configuration.

Example of use:
chmod 555 libinotes.so
chown root libinotes.so
