Choosing A Gateway Name; Configuring The Windows Async Gateway - Novell GROUPWISE 7 ASYNC GATEWAY - INSTALLATION AND ADMINISTRATION Installation And Administration Manual

Novell Confidential
You can choose where the NetWare Async Gateway is installed. Although the Installation
program allows you to specify different locations for the Async Gateway NLM
NLM programs, and the .ncf file, the simplest choice is to install all files to sys:\system. Installing
the gateway files on the same server where the domain is located reduces network traffic, but the
gateway files can be installed on a different server if necessary.
If you install the NetWare Async Gateway on a different server from where the domain is located,
you must provide a username and password for the gateway to use when logging in to the server
where the domain is located. The gateway requires Read, Write, Create, Erase, Modify, and File
Scan rights in the domain directory.

domain is located or on a remote server. For a remote server location, specify a username and
password to provide login and access rights.

When you install the Async Gateway, a Gateway object is created in the domain where you install
the gateway. The default gateway name is Async.

When you install the Exchange Gateway, a subdirectory for the gateway software and queues is
created under the domain directory. By default, the directory name is the same as the object name.
If you use the default object name of Async, the gateway subdirectory is domain\wpgate\async.
This is the root directory for the gateway.

Configuring the Windows Async Gateway

When you install the Windows Async Gateway, you have choices about how the Async Gateway
interacts with the Windows operating system.
Choosing between Windows Application and Windows Service
You can install the Windows Async Gateway as a Windows application or a Windows service.
When you install the Windows Async Gateway as an application, it can be manually started by a
user or it can be added to a user's Startup folder so that it starts automatically when the user logs
in to the Windows server. When running as an application, the Async Gateway displays a server
console on the Windows server where you can monitor and control the gateway.
