Standard Home Folder

In order to prevent external users from storing files in any folder of the operating system, it is possible to define a client-wide standard home folder.

Creating a Home Folder

If you save a partner channel, the configured home folder will be created (if it has not existed yet) for channels of type FTP and SSH on the Integration Server computer. For channels of type OFTP the inbound and outbound folder will be created. If a DMZ server is used, the folder will be created on the DMZ server as well unless the checkbox Invisible to DMZ is set (see section General Channel Settings).

Automatically Create Subdirectories in Home Folder

You might want a certain subdirectory structure to be automatically created under the home folder when a partner channel of type FTP or SSH (not OFTP) is saved. For this purpose you can use the configuration file ./etc/admin/datawizard/subdir.properties. Allowed log names are ftp and ssh. Each protocol can only appear in one line. The list of subdirectories contains the relative subdirectory paths, separated by semicolons, that are to be generated automatically for a partner channel of the corresponding protocol type. Following an example for the configuration file.

If the subdirectories should also be created automatically on the DMZ server (if available), this configuration file must also be adjusted there.
