Configure File Storage on the FileXpress Proxy
The file storage server setting is configured in Gateway Administrator under System > File Storage. By default, FileXpress Gateway creates transfer site directories on the FileXpress Gateway Proxy.
- The default base directory on the FileXpress Gateway Proxy is configured using the FileXpress Secure Shell Proxy console, not using Gateway Administrator. This can be a local folder on the FileXpress Secure Shell Proxy computer or an accessible network share.
- The name and location of the base directory you configure for your file storage server is not made visible to client users. The folder name that users see when they connect is the value you specify for Transfer site name when you create a transfer site. The actual subdirectory on the file storage server is the value you specify for Directory name.
The default base directory on the FileXpress Gateway Proxy is:
C:\ProgramData\Attachmate\RSecureServer\FileXpress\
To modify the base directory on the FileXpress Gateway Proxy
- Start the FileXpress Secure Shell Proxy console. It is installed in the Windows Start menu (or Apps list) under Attachmate FileXpress Gateway > FileXpress Secure Shell Proxy.
- On the FileXpress Users pane, edit FileXpress base path.
Note: You can specify a local path, a mapped drive, or a UNC path. If you specify a network location, set FileXpress user access account to a user who has access to that location.
- Save your settings (File > Save Settings).
