The Windows* server on which you run the GroupWise® 7 Gateway for Lotus Notes must meet the following system requirements.
The Windows server where you install the Notes Gateway must meet the following additional requirements:
The Lotus Notes client must be installed on the Notes Gateway server.
The Notes Gateway server must have network access to the server where the GroupWise domain directory is located.
The Notes Gateway server must have network access to the Lotus Notes/Domino server.
Ideally, you should not install the Notes Gateway on the Notes/Domino server. Although the Notes Gateway can work on the same server with some versions of Notes, directory synchronization and exchange do not work on the same server with other versions of Notes. However, the Notes Gateway can still exchange messages between the two systems. If you do not want to enable directory synchronization and exchange, you can safely run the Notes Gateway on the Notes/Domino server.
The GroupWise 7 Gateway for Lotus Notes can connect your Notes system to GroupWise 6.5 and GroupWise 7.x systems.
