Exchange 55 GAL MA
OK, so now that we know the Metaverse (MV) object
we are going to target, we can take a deeper look at the agents that
collect and distribute the data. Each MA contains connection information
to a specific directory. As a result, each MA is also known as a
Collector Space (CS). To view the settings on the Exchange 55 GAL MA, we
need only to double click the agent from the main agent screen.
This page shows us the base Management Agent
(Exchange Server 5.5) and the name we have provided to identify the
Agent. This name is used within the source code to identify the
Connector Space.
 Connection
to Organization
In this page, we identify the Exchange 5.5 server
we will connect to as well as the credentials we will use. You can see
that we have specified the MIIS user account in order to restrict our
permissions to the Exchange environment. Moreover, you should notice
that we are not using the standard port of 389 for our LDAP connections.
This server is also a Windows 2000 Server running Domain Controller
services so we had to change the Exchange 5.5 port for LDAP to port 390.
Configure Sites
It is from this screen that we identify the sites
that contain the objects we want to synchronize (copy to) with the AD.
From this screen, we can identify any other servers we want to target
(not required for this installation) as well as the containers we want
to choose.
Note: It is important that you select both the
source containers and target containers from the Containers window.
Deselected containers will not be used for either reading or writing
with MIIS.
 Select
Object Types
We need to expose several different types of
information from the Exchange 5.5 environment. You will probably need to
use the Show All checkbox to select each of these object types.
