Using Async Gateway Startup Switches

The Novell^® GroupWise^® Async Gateway allows you to define gateway switches at the command line or within a startup file. Startup switches have two main functions:

• To specify paths to various files the gateway can read or write to
• To set operational parameters

To use a startup switch on the command line, include it immediately after the command used for starting the gateway. For example:

Syntax: load ngwasync /switch

Example: load ngwasync /home-mail:\headq\wpgate\asynlm

Startup switches provided on the command line override startup switches provided in the startup file and settings provided in ConsoleOne^®.

To use a startup switch in the startup file, use an ASCII text editor to edit the startup file (gwasync.cfg) located in the Async Gateway installation directory. Startup switches set in the startup file override settings provided in ConsoleOne. After editing the startup file, you must restart the Async Gateway to put the new settings into effect.

Some switches must be followed by a value, which must be separated from the switch itself by a hyphen (-) or an equal sign (=).

The Async Gateway uses the following switches:
