Address book server configuration with Communications Sync

Hello. How can I find out what server/port to enter in Sun Communications Sync 2005Q4 for the Address Book Server? We are using Communications Express and I see the address book entries under o=PiServerDb.

Here are my configutil settings for uwc:

local.sso.uwc.verifyurl = http://hostname:6788/uwc/VerifySSO?

local.webmail.sso.uwccontexturi = uwc

local.webmail.sso.uwcenabled = 1

local.webmail.sso.uwchome = http://www.Sun.com

local.webmail.sso.uwclogouturl = http://hostname:6788/uwc/base/UWCMain?op=logout

local.webmail.sso.uwcport = 6788

Hi,

The addressbook server is your UWC address, so from the information provided, the addressbook server host will be "hostname" and the port would be "6788".

UWC provides a private-interface to the LDAP user addressbook which is used by the Outlook Connector. It's the reason why the Outlook Connector requires UWC to be installed.

Regards,

Shane.

Shane,

Thanks for your reply. I get ''invalid URL http://hostname.domain:6788" when I configure Sync address book as you describe. I get the same error if I use the IP address of the server. I can telnet to the hostname and port from my PC. I also see that the server is listening on that port. . Any ideas?

David.

Here's some more info: if I type the URL http://hostname.domain:6788 into my browser after I've logged in to CommEx, I get a CommEx window, redirected to port 6777. If I have not logged in to CommEx, I get 'unable to display web page'.

I forgot to mention I'm trying to Sync with Outlook 2003. I haven't installed the Outlook Connector. When I run synchronize from the Outlook menu, I don't get an error, but no sync occurs.

Well, how can you expect Outlook to know how to sync without the connector? That's what the Outlook Connector is for, so Outlook can sync with Comms.

The release notes for Sun Java Communcation Sync 2005Q4 don't list the Outlook Connector as a requirement. Furthermore, we've been running Communications Sync 1.1 without the Outlook Connector for some time. I've assumed that Sync would run alone as before. Is that correct or not?

From the Sun Java Communcations Suite 5 Deployment Guide:

Sun Java System Communications Sync 3.0 (formerly SunONE Synchronization) is a software product that runs on a Windows personal computer and enables users to synchronize Communications Suite events, tasks, and contacts with mobile devices and personal information managers (PIMs) such as Microsoft Outlook.

And this URL seems to say that Communcations Sync will run as a standalone tool as well:

Hi,

Yes the sync tool is a standalone utility (you don't need the outlook connector installed). I finally got around to installing/configuring the latest version (comm-suite-5 sync tool) against my 2005Q4 test install.

The addressbook server is the UWC address as I mentioned before but you also need to include the /uwc on the end.

So for my system I have the following setting:

local.sso.uwc.verifyurl = http://test-system.sun.com:82/uwc/VerifySSO?

This maps to a :

=> Address Book Server: test-system.sun.com/uwc

=> Port: 82

So in your case it would be:

local.sso.uwc.verifyurl = http://hostname:6788/uwc/VerifySSO?

=> Address Book Server: hostname/uwc

=> Port: 6788

Regards,

Shane.
