Situation

Steps for setting up the Secure Gateway to use SSL.

Resolution

1. In DOS prompt on the SecureGateway Server, go to C:\Program files\Secure Gateway\jre1.5.0_01.

Type in: keytool.exe -genkey -keyalg RSA -alias -keystore

*The "servername" above must be the actual name of the box running the Mobile Suite, the "name.key" will be the name you want the key file to be.

Answer all of the questions prompted for, this information will be in the certificate.

Whatever you named the key will be generated in: C:\Program Files\
Secure Gateway\jre1.5.0.0_01\bin

2. Copy the key file into C:\Program Files\Secure Gateway\CommSrv\conf


3. Next go to the SecureGateway server and open the"securegateway.properties" file in C:\Program files\Secure Gateway\CommSrv\conf and add the following lines (case sensitive entries):

HttpsSSLPort=443
SSLKeyFileName=
SSLPassCode=

*The "name.key" is the file created in steps above. The password is the same used as one of the questions prompted during the key creation.

Restart the Intellisync Mobile Suite and Secure Gateway services and you should be working with SSL.
