The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, version 3.0

SYMPTOMS

When a Foreign DirSync, Directory Synchronization with Foreign Mail Systems, message comes into the DirSync directory server, these error messages may appear:

In DIRSYNC.LOG: 

   "3/23/93 11:00:03 | Error  [158] Requestor not
   registered : PCM:"

   -or-

   "3/23/93 11:05:03 | Error  [158] Requestor not
   registered : PCM:NETWORK/POSTOFFICE"
In ADMIN's Mailbox: 

   "Requestor not registered :
   From: NETWORK/POSTOFFICE/USERID"

CAUSE

If the NETWORK/POSTOFFICE are a foreign DirSync postoffice, one of the following may cause the error:

  • The NETWORK/POSTOFFICE was not defined on the directory server using ADMIN:CONFIG:DIR-SYNC:SERVER:REQUESTORS:CREATE. Without this, the directory server does not accept requests from a requestor.
  • The REQNAME field in the DirSync message has a typo for the NETWORK/POSTOFFICE name or the directory server has a typo defined for the FFAPI gateway postoffice.
  • The REQNAME field does not contain a NETWORK/POSTOFFICE. For example: 

          REQNAME=PCM:

The Directory Synchronization with Foreign Mail Systems Manual does not clearly explain the need for the network and postoffice name for Microsoft Mail Software Development Kit (FFAPI)-based gateways. Other gateways require only an entry containing one of the predefined types. These types are listed in the "Foreign DirSync" manual.
