Files Used by Reflection for Secure IT
Reflection for Secure IT stores files in an Attachmate\RSecureServer folder located in the shared data folder. The default location is:
Windows XP:
Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Attachmate\RSecureServer

Note: The files in this data folder (with the exception of the host public key) contain information that should remain secure. These files should not be readable by any one except SYSTEM and Administrators. These file permissions are set by default.
