5.3 Information Access

After the user passes authentication, GroupWise Mobile Server determines the information each user can access. For example, access to e-mail and PIM information is set up using profile settings. However, you can control delivery of software and files using a publish-and-subscribe model. For more information, see Section 5.5.3, Enabling or Preventing User Credential Storage on the Device

5.3.1 E-Mail and PIM Access

After a user connects and passes authentication, the system determines whether the user can access e-mail and PIM information. Email Accelerator uses profile settings to control how users access the mail server. Depending on the mail server you are using, there are several options for granting access.

Granting users access to the corporate mail server is integral to a successful e-mail and PIM implementation. For more information, see Section 7.0, Granting Access to the Mailā£ Server.

5.3.2 Automated Discovery For New Users and New Devices

When you enable user discovery, any new user with the Intellisync Mobile Suite client and proper network credentials can access the system. GroupWise Mobile Server automatically assigns the new user to the New User group. As the system administrator, you can routinely review new users and change the assignment to other groups or create individual settings as appropriate.

When you enable device discovery, you can authenticate and add devices not already in the system. If you do not select this option, you can only authenticate devices already in the system.

You can set user and device discovery with the Intellisync Mobile Suite control.

  1. From the console tree, select Intellisync Mobile Suite.

  2. Click Action > Properties.

  3. Click the Authentication tab.
