To Gwia or not to Gwia
Hi everyone.
I have 6.5.7 that is on a 10+ years box. It's time to put it to rest -
I said but the boss does not want to spend the money - heard that
before!
It a suite using on GW and Gwava no other products. There are worried
about email failure. So I'm trying GWAVA's Reload product. It works fine
for the backup and the disaster recovery BUT you have no Gwia. Can I set
up another Netware box with just the Gwia on it and disable the main box
Gwia
so that when the system fails ( and it will) we will have a email
running service?
Also is there a license issue here...
gwia stats showing read errors but errors not seen in gwia logsHi -
we are using Groupwise 6.0.4 and Novell 5.01. We changed out outgoing
mail to hosted mail symantec.net for outbound virus scanning. Since
doing that we are seeing lots of 420 TCP Read Errors.
So far we have increased our send /receive counts/ increased the Timeout
settings / swapped our hardware / flushed our ip's / changed some
firewall settings.
Now we do not see 420 Errors in the logs but the counter stats indicate
that Read Errors are happening.
Has anyone got any ideas on why these errors show in console and not in
logs?
thanks very much, Susie

Weird gwia errors... flooding gwiaI've been trying to track down this problem for a long time.
Something
triggers and endless loop of errors ( i will post the errors ) but I
think I
may have found out what is starting this. First of all, its gw6sp3.
In
scanning the log files... I noticed this.

GWIA 55EP2 and GWIA 6x DifferencesHello,
I am reading the Groupwise upgrade guide, as we are planning to upgrade
from GW 55EP2 to GW 6.x. In there, it mentions that we may not want to
upgrade right away to a 6.x GWIA, especially if we support POP3 or IMAP
clients. And it seems to indicate that the GroupWise post offices now
talk directly to a 6.x GWIA, while a 5.x GWIA always communicates through
the MTA. Can someone explain to me the differences in the GWIA's so we
can deploy our GW upgrade without surprises? We have a single GroupWise
domain, Single GWIA, Single MTA, and 8 post offices distributed on ...

Error 450 Host Down on GWIAGreetings,
We are experiencing errors on the GWIA agent, when sending emails to
some
domains. Apparently, the problem is related to higher priority Mail
Exchange
(MX) hosts not responding to requests of the GWIA as explained in
Novell's
support TID number 100534469
(http://support.novell.com/cgi-bin/search/searchtid.cgi?/10053469.htm
). It
says:
"This problem has been reported to development.
Customer can either install the non-enhancement pack GW 5.5.2 GWIA or
create
a ROUTE.CFG in the domain\WPGATE\gwia directory with the hostname they

GWIA host/domain settingHi there,
When I telnet to the GWIA on the private side IP I get a connection
message that says
220 www.delphian.org GroupWise Internet Agent 7.0.2 HP Copyright (c)
1993-2007 Novell, Inc. All rights reserved. Ready
The private side IP otherwise resolves to mail.delphian.org, which is
correct, so the local DNS seems to be working right.
"www" is actually hosted and does not resolve to a private IP. There are
no hosts entries either on the workstation or server end that define www
otherwise.
I can't find any GWIA setting where www.delphian.org is used.

gwia and 450 Host down for own domainSuddenly have a spate of this going on, no apparent reason.
450 Host Down stmarks.pp.catholic.edu.au (Which is the name of our domain)
Defer is filling up with messages that are being sent by gwia to (itself?)
mostly dealing with failed deliveries of emails for one (real) reason or
another (typos in address etc)
Most of these are from <> ie null sender.
Inbound mail from other domains (ie the internet at large) seems ok.
Outbound mail to other domains is likewise ok.
Caveat: AOHell and now Hotmail, but that's not GWIA's fault - they have
decided we are on a dial...
450 Host down error on the GWIADo you have a e-mail firewall system such as Proofpoint in place? We have
this happen when our firewall is having problems such as rebooting for
the coninuous updates that it receives from the vendor or an influx of
spam. Ususally the GroupWise "Agents/gwia/defer" directory will start
collecting items in it and that tells us that the mail is not going
through the firewall system. We then check our firewall box and 95% of
the time it is having a problem.
I hope this helps in your case.

groupwise 5.5 gwia outI've tested out 2 different e-mail clients our .bat one and outlook
express. i think our GWIA-Out is having a problem sending mail using
those clients.
Could there be something in the way it processes the mail that is coming
from an e-mail client that is not groupwise 5.5 mail client?

anthony
Naw, but it's nearly impossible to safely set up 5.x in a way you don't
expose yourself for spam relay...

Sub-domains, GWIA and relay hostHi.
I have a customer having domain, say company.com.
Most if the POs users are having that mail-address, like
firstname.lastname@company.com.
Then there are some POs that have subdomains, like sales.company.com.
This is configured at the postoffice.
Worked fine until they decided to relay outgoing mails throu a
relay-host. I configured the GWIA relay host option, and after that
when the users that have sub-domain sends mail to the internet their
mailaddress looks like firstname.lastname@company.com instead of
firstname.lastname@sales.company.com. When I look at the GWIA-screen

GWIA 450 Host Down on 1 domainI'm getting a 450 Host Down message on GWIA only when sending to 1
specific domain. I can telnet to port 25 and do an NSLookup to the MX
record and it responds ok.
I tried creating a Route.cfg with the ip address up the remote domain and
still got the same condition.

Link Non-GroupWise Domain To GWIAI have a non-GroupWise domain containing several external POs. The external
POs contain external users with gateway aliases to addresses in other
systems. The gateway alias type for these users is SMTP and shows the Post
Office as GWIA under the primary domain. The GWIA in the primary domain has
recently been shut down in favor of using another GWIA created in a
secondary domain on a different server. The primary and secondary domain
MTAs are direct-linked via IP and working.
The problem encountered is messages addressed to the users in these external
POs are sent to the gwia queue d...
