Hi,

Does anyone know of a way of synching a PPC with Groupwise. I understand that Pumatech Intellisynch will do it like activ synch but at work I log on using different PCs at different locations. Is there an easy remote sych solution? I mainly need to sych my calendar, I can use web to access email.

Regards
David

My employer uses Groupwise :silly:

I know nothing about remote, I assume you are looking for Web Based synching, but just in case this information is helpful.

I used Intellisync for a long time and lived with the limitations. The biggest limitation I notied was having to manually initiate every sync, and that meant my PC and PPC were more often than not out of sync.

I then learned that with GW 6.5 and Outlook XP I can have both live on the same computer. I uninstalled GW. I then installed Outlook XP and then re-installed GW and almost all of my synching is working through ActiveSync. My contacts do not sync, but I can use Intellisync for contacts if I need to. But since my contacts are rather static that is not such an issue for me. Having my calendar sync automatically is the biggest benefit I have experienced.

Of course, if you are not allowed to install Outlook on the computer due to company policy, then Intellisync is probably your best bet.

On the Novell website, there is a plugin for Groupwise. This way Groupwise is linked to outlook as it's main calander. Used it for three years with a lot of fun.......
