XFOR: Installing the Proxy Address Generator for Exchange-OV/VM

ID: Q169520

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.0

SUMMARY

In a multiple-site environment, sites other than the site where LinkAge Message Exchange is installed need the proxy generator and the address template to send and receive mail with the connected systems.

The following instructions identify the steps necessary to install the proxy generator and the address template for the LinkAge Exchange-OV/VM Connector on a site separate from the site where the connector is installed.

1. The following files are required for these steps, and can be obtained

   from the C:\Linkage\Install directory on the currently installed LinkAge
   connector:

   - Mexitmpl.exe
   - Exiaddr.exe
   - Ibmpxgen.dll
   - Ibmscr.blt
   - Ibmadt.blt
   - Ibmadt.hlp

2. Create a C:\Linkage\Install directory on the Exchange Server computer in

   the site where the proxy generator and the address template are to be
   installed, and copy the above files to this directory.

3. Create the following directory where the PROFS proxy address generator

   will exist:

      \\MEXServerName\Address\PROFS\I386

4. Copy the following file into the directory created in step 3:

      Ibmpxgen.dll

5. Run the following command from the C:\Linkage\Install directory to

   install the PROFS address template on the Exchange Server computer:

      mexitmpl "/org=MEXOrganization" "/site=MEXSite"
      "/Server=MEXServerName" /ADDRTYPE=PROFS
      /SYNTAX=c:\linkage\install\ibmscr.blt
      /ADDRESS_DT=c:\linkage\install\ibmadt.blt
      /LANGUAGE=409 /FILE=c:\linkage\install\ibmadt.hlp
      /DATA16=c:\linkage\install\ibmadt.hlp
      /DATA32=c:\linkage\install\ibmadt.hlp /SF

6. Check the following files to see if any errors occurred with the above

   command:

   - Lmeistat.txt
   - Lmeilog.txt

7. Run the following command from the C:\Linkage\Install directory to

   install the proxy address rule and to optionally generate proxy
   addresses:

      mexiaddr "/org=MEXOrganization" "/site=MEXSite"
      /Server=MEXServerName"  /ADDRTYPE=PROFS
      /MACHINE=I386 ?/PROXYRULE=PROFS:nodeid(&m)?
      /PROXYDLL=c:\linkage\install\ibmpxgen.dll  /SF

   Replace nodeid with the node ID assigned to the connector.

   If proxy addresses are NOT to be generated, then insert /NOGENADDR
   before the /SF

8. Check the following file to see if any errors occurred with the above

   command:

   - Lmeistat.txt
   - Lmeilog.txt
