Server Folder Management

Server Folder Management manages the access to Transfer Desk files stored on a dedicated Microsoft Windows file server. Folders containing the files are restricted to prevent unauthorized users from downloading sensitive files to their own machines. Only SSC Administrators have access to Server Folder Management.

To use Server Folder Management, the Administrator must specify a shared folder, or 'root directory', on a Windows file server. Folders for user access are created under the root directory. This prevents Transfer Desk users from accessing the rest of the file server.

The Administrator assigns one or more SunSystems User Groups to a folder. Everything created beneath the folder is accessible only to users from the assigned User Group.
