Automating Reattachment to NetWare Servers

You can specify the reattach information for the Windows Internet Agent in ConsoleOne. Whenever the Windows Internet Agent loses its connection to a post office that is on a NetWare server, it will read the reattach information from the domain database and attempt to reattach to the NetWare server.

The NetWare Internet Agent does not use this information. To reattach to NetWare servers where users' post offices reside, the NetWare Internet Agent uses the user ID and password specified during installation. This user ID and password are entered in the gwia.cfg file. For more information, see Required Switches.

To specify the reattachment information for the Windows Internet Agent:

1. In ConsoleOne, right-click the Internet Agent object, then click Properties.

2. Click Reattach > Settings to display the Reattach Settings page.

   
   

3. Define the following properties:

   Tree: Enter the Novell eDirectory^TM tree that the Internet Agent logs in to. If the Internet Agent does not use an eDirectory user account, leave this field blank.

   Context: Enter the eDirectory context of the Internet Agent's user account. If the Internet Agent does not use an eDirectory user account, leave this field blank.

   User ID: Enter the name of the user account.

   Password: Enter the password for the user account.

4. Click OK.
