Copy the mslocal directory and its contents to the desired location on the Linux server.
Edit the MTA startup file (domain.mta in the /opt/novell/groupwise/agents/share directory).
Set the --work switch to the new location of the mslocal directory.
Start or restart the Linux MTA, so that it reads its modified startup file, as described in the following section in the for your version of GroupWise:
