Chapter 8 Managing Portable Computers 145
If you enable the option, a server daemon updates the database of changed files. The
user’s computer scans only the folders in the local home folder that have been
modified since the last time the database was updated.
To enable the option, TCP port 2336 must be open on your file server’s firewall.
To optimize the file server for mobile accounts:
1 In Server Admin, click the disclosure triangle for the server hosting network home
folders for mobile accounts.
2 If Firewall isn’t listed, select the server, click Settings, click Services, select Firewall, and
then click Save.
3 Select Firewall, click Settings, and then click Services.
4 Choose the address range for your users’ computers from the “Edit Services for” pop-up
menu.
5 Select “Allow only traffic from ‘ipaddress’ to any of these ports,” select the Allow
checkbox for Mobile Account Sync (port 2336), and then click Save.
6 Select the server, click Settings, and then click General.
7 Select “Server Side File Tracking for Mobile Home Sync” and then click Save.
