Messaging Server:
Identification
Edit or fill in the messaging
server identification fields > click Apply to save the
settings.
NetWare Host Displays
the full context name of the NetWare server that is serving as a
NIMS messaging server.
Postmaster Specify the
full context name of the user assigned to manage the messaging
server. The Postmaster receives email notifications about problems
with the messaging server and requires more rights than the
typical user to correct these problems.
Official Domain
Displays the Internet domain serviced by the messaging server
(such as companyname.com or isp.net). You can
associate the Message Server object with a different domain name
by changing the official domain in this field.
Work Directory Specify
the volume where the NIMS agents write temporary files.
Resolvers Specify the
IP address of one or more DNS servers that resolve host names into
IP addresses.
Connection Manager The
Connection Manager provides user authentication services by
tracking the IP addresses of client users. The POP, IMAP, and SMTP
Agents can all make use of the Connection Manager. If you have
configured a Connection Manager for your NIMS system, select
Connection Manager > type the fully distinguished name of
one or more Connection Manager objects, with one name per line.
Distributed Processing Disabled
In a standalone configuration, select Distributed Processing
Disabled. Your NIMS system has only one message server, so
distributed processing is not needed.
In a distributed configuration,
messaging servers communicate with each other across the network.
If your NIMS system includes messaging servers located across slow
links, performance is improved by disabling communication with
such message servers. When you are configuring a messaging server
located across a slow link, you can select Distributed Processing
Disabled, which causes that messaging server to operate in
standalone mode, without communicating with other messaging
servers. |
