Steps to Install the Sample Gateway

1. Make a directory named C:\Exchsrvr\Address\EDK\i386 and copy Proxygen.dll to that directory.
2. Make a directory named C:\Exchsrvr\Add-ins\Sgw\i386 and copy Sgwadmin.dll to that directory.
3. Make a directory named C:\Sgw\In.
4. Make a directory named C:\Sgw\Out.
5. Copy Gwsample.exe to C:\Sgw.
6. Copy Ipm_in.dll and Ipm_out.dll to your \Winnt\System32 directory.
7. Copy Msvcrtd.dll and Mfc42d.dll to your \Winnt\System32 directory. These files can be copied from your development computer to the Windows NT server that is going to run the gateway.
8. Issue the following commands:
   
   Xlatinst.exe /dll=IPM_IN.DLL /CLASSES=ENVELOPE.IPM%REPORT.IPM /POINT=SAMPLEGW.INBOUND *NOTE: if you use this command in a batch file insert an additional % when defining the CLASSES; that is, /CLASSES=ENVELOPE.IPM%%REPORT.IPM Xlatinst.exe /dll=IPM_OUT.DLL /CLASSES=ENVELOPE.IPM%REPORT.IPM /POINT=SAMPLEGW.OUTBOUND *NOTE: if you use this command in a batch file insert an additional % when defining the CLASSES; that is, /CLASSES=ENVELOPE.IPM%%REPORT.IPM Addrinst.exe /sitedn=/o=Organization/ou=Site /name=edk /machine=i386 /type=edk /proxydll=\\Server\address\edk\i386\proxygen.dll /server=Server /gwproxy=EDK:@Site.Organization.com Extninst.exe /sitedn=/o=Organization/ou=Site /display_name="SGW EDK SAMPLE GATEWAY EXTENSION" /machine=i386 /name=SGW /extdll=\\Server\ADD-INS\SGW\i386\sgwadmin.dll /server=Server Gwinst.exe /sitedn=/o=Organization/ou=Site /display_name=SGW /name=SGW:i386 /addrtype=edk /server=Server /extname=sgw Servinst.exe /sitedn=/o=Organization/ou=Site /display_name=SGW /service=SGW /exe=c:\SGW\Gwsample.exe /server=Server /objname=SGW:i386 /objtype=gateway /account=Domain\Exchange-Service-Account /password=Password
9. Run the Exchange Administrator program and configure properties of the sgw connector found on the Options tab. The Option tab for this article should have the following information filled in:
   

   Address Type: EDK
   Display Name: System Administrator
   Email Address: SysAdmin
   Messages to Process : select both Inbound and Outbound
                              INBOUND           OUTBOUND
   Threads                        4                4 
   Messages per Thread:           1                1
   Sleep per message:             0                0
   Polling Interval:        NOTIFICATION       NOTIFICATION
   Directory:                c:\sgw\in          c:\sgw\out
   Converter:             samplegw.inbound   samplegw.outbound
   						

   Start the SGW service in the Services Control Panel.
