When you add users to the GroupWise Connector, the GroupWise Connector communicates with the GroupWise POA to obtain data from users’ mailboxes. The GroupWise Connector then passes the users’ mailbox data to the Sync Engine for distribution to the Mobility Connector and other connectors.
After installation, additional user information might have been obtained from your LDAP directory by configuring Synchronizer to search additional LDAP containers, as described in Searching Multiple LDAP Contexts for Users and Groups
in Synchronizer System Management
in the Novell Data Synchronizer System Administration Guide.
If only a few users want to synchronize GroupWise data with mobile devices, you can add these users individually to the GroupWise Connector, as described in Adding a User to a Connector in Synchronizer Web Admin
in Connector and User Management
in the Novell Data Synchronizer System Administration Guide.
IMPORTANT:Be sure to add users to the GroupWise Connector before adding them to other connectors.
If you added users to the GroupWise Connector by adding LDAP groups, simply add users to the LDAP group in your LDAP directory and the users are automatically added to the GroupWise Connector. For more information, see:
When users are added during Data Synchronizer installation, they are configured with the default set of synchronization options for the GroupWise Connector:

By default, all the listed item types are synchronized both to and from GroupWise. If you want to create new users with different synchronization settings, you can create one or more user profiles before adding more users to the GroupWise Connector. For instructions, see Managing User Profiles
in Connector and User Management
in the Novell Data Synchronizer System Administration Guide.
