MFG Directory export issue

This is a bit strange for me. Please help me to understand.

The GroupWise server we are migrating from, maintains its own user database. 
It is only importing user data from a Novell LDAP server but it is not integrated with it like an Exchange integrates with the AD.
So I'll not be able to find mail address information from the novel directory.

The Quest MFG DirExporter request me to enter the name for the GWIA LDAP srv and a username.

The strange is that the GWIA component of a GroupWise server does not contain any LDAP server.

LDAP interface is provided by the MTA agent.

When I move the mouse over the text where I can enter the LDAP server I receive an alternate text that informs me about where the LDAP configuration is available in GW ConsoleOne.
It says something like GWIA SMTP/MIME settings tab is where I can get this information.

The ConsoleOne is not available in GW 2014 R2. The GW environment is 2014 R2. The GroupWise client installed on the MFG server is 2012 SP3.

 

Could you please help me how to go further and start directory export?

BR,
Ferenc

  • Has there been an update on this?  I was looking at adding a CIFS share from the linux GW server running GW 2018, but when I ran it by support was told to install eDirectory.  Since that will be a bit of a tough sell, I thought I would see if there are any updates to this thread?  The environment we are working with is not using an LDAP connection or eDirectory, only the Native Groupwise directory.
