Environment

GroupWise 18

Situation

While no longer supported, there are issues using the GroupWise 8 Mac client against a GroupWise 18 backend

Resolution

The fix is to add the following switch to the POA startup file.

--sslOption "SSL_OP_ALLOW_TLSv1_1,SSL_OP_ALLOW_TLSv1"  for GroupWise running on Linux
/sslOption-"SSL_OP_ALLOW_TLSv1_1,SSL_OP_ALLOW_TLSv1"  for GroupWise running on Windows
