IMPORTANT: 

In order for the Mobility Pack Installation program to access the key file, you might 

need to copy it to a convenient location on the Synchronizer server. The Installation program 
automatically transfers the trusted application key from the key file into the configuration of the 
GroupWise Connector.

GroupWise Post Office Agent

The GroupWise Connector accesses your GroupWise system by communicating with a Post Office 
Agent (POA). The selected POA must be configured for SOAP, as described in “

Supporting SOAP 

Clients

” in “

Post Office Agent

” in the 

GroupWise 8 Administration Guide

. The selected POA can 

obtain information about all users in all post offices in your GroupWise system, provided your 
GroupWise system has a GroupWise name server, as described in “

Simplifying Client/Server 

Access with a GroupWise Name Server

” in “

Post Office Agent

” in the 

GroupWise 8 Administration 

Guide

The Mobility Pack Installation program and the GroupWise Connector need the IP address or DNS 
hostname of the server where the POA is running. In addition, they need the POA SOAP port, which 
is 7191 by default. Typically, the same port number is used regardless of whether the POA is 
configured for a secure SSL SOAP connection. The Mobility Pack Installation program and the 
GroupWise Connector need to know whether or not the connection is secure, because they use one 
of the following URLs to communicate with the POA:

IMPORTANT: 

By default, the GroupWise Connector communicates with the POA using port 

4500. If there is a firewall between the Synchronizer server and the POA server, be sure to configure 
the firewall to allow communication on port 4500. If necessary, you can configure the GroupWise 
Connector to use a different port number after installation, as described in “

GroupWise Connector Listening Port

Groupwise 

Connector Installation and Configuration Guide
