Creating or editing connections

(Agenda View | Tools | Manage Connections | New)

To create a server connection:

  1. Enter a name for the connection profile. This is the name that will appear in the Connection Manager dialog box.
  2. Write any information you want associated with this profile in the Comment box.
  3. Enter the server name, which is provided by your calendar system administrator. Click Lookup to do a search on this server to determine the nodes and authentication, compression and encryption (ACE) schemes available.
  4. Select a node and method of authentication, compression and encryption for your connection. If the option "Server-defined" appears, you do not have the right to configure this setting. If the option  "Not available on this server" appears, you must upgrade to a more recent server in order to have this feature.

To edit a server connection:

  1. In the Connection Manager dialog, select the name of the connection profile that you would like to edit. Click Edit. The Connection Editor dialog will open and will show the connection's settings
  2. Edit the profile by changing its name, modifying information in the Comment box, changing the server information, changing the node or modifying the ACE profile. You may want to do another Lookup when editing a server connection, in order to see whether there have been any changes to the ACE mechansims.
Connect using calendar domain: If you are connecting to CorporateTime through an ASP, select this checkbox and type in the domain's name.
