Setting up GroupWise 8 Web Access Auto Forward

After you have setup Novells Groupwise Web Access you are not told that it does not have the industry standard  auto forwards functionality.  What is meant by hot having an auto forward is that when the unlucky end user who want to connect to the Groupwise WebAccess service they must type in the full http://webmail.yourcompany.com/gw/webacc.

If you want to make the groupwise web mail service more more accessible to your end users by only having to type in the simple URL address like http://webmail.yourcompany.com you have to include the html shown below in a files call index.html.

This file must be place in the linux directory  /srv/www/htdocs/

<html>
   <head>
     <META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" Content="0;url=http://webmail.yourcompany.com/gw/webacc">
   </head>
   <body>
   </body>
</html>
