PROFINST: Installing a MAPI Profile
PROFINST: Installing a MAPI Profile
This content is no longer actively maintained. It is provided as is, for anyone who may still be using these technologies, with no warranties or claims of accuracy with regard to the most recent product version or service release.
Use the PROFINST application to install a connector profile for a gateway. The gateway can use the profile to log on to MAPI. If you pass the additional parameter /EX2000 as an argument, PROFINST will create a Microsoft® Exchange 2000 Server-compatible profile. If this parameter is not passed, PROFINST creates a profile that is compatible with Exchange 5.5. You can also use this application to delete a profile.
To create a profile for Exchange 2000, type the following at the command prompt:
PROFINST /SERVICE=gateway servicename /NAME=profile name /TYPE=GATEWAY /EX2000
Note Although this profile is automatically created when the Sample Gateway is installed, you must run PROFINST explicitly with the /EX2000 parameter to successfully use the sample application GWCLEAN.
To create a profile for Exchange 5.5, type the following at the command prompt:
PROFINST /SERVICE=gateway service name /NAME=profile name /TYPE=GATEWAY >
The PROFINST application has the following parameters:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| SERVICE | Service name for the gateway. This is the name that was assigned when the gateway was installed. |
| NAME | Profile name. |
| TYPE [Optional parameter:/EX2000] | Profile type (for a gateway, this is GATEWAY. If you include the /EX2000 parameter, the profile will be Exchange 2000-compatible. Otherwise it will be compatible with Exchange 5.5.) |
| DELETE | Deletes the profile. |
| HELP or ? | Displays Help information. |
