Specifying the communications protocol for clients

The MobiLink synchronization server has the -x command line option to specify the communications protocol or protocols for the synchronization client to connect to the MobiLink server. The kind of communication protocol you choose must match the synchronization protocol used by the client. The syntax for this command line option is:

dbmlsrv9 -c "connection-string" -x protocol

In the following example, the TCP/IP protocol is selected with no additional communications parameters.

dbmlsrv9 -c "dsn=ASA 9.0 Sample" -x tcpip

You can configure your protocol using communication parameters of the form:

(keyword=value;...)

For example:

dbmlsrv9 -c "dsn=ASA 9.0 Sample" -x tcpip(
   host=localhost;port=2439)

For more information about communication protocols, see -x option.
