This operating mode is the default setting and is recommended if more than one user is working on one system and true multi-user operation is required, e.g. on a central Windows server. It is recommended to retain this default setting.
Notes
The service is automatically started up when the operating system is started up unless this has been explicitly deactivated via the administration facilities.
The access to the file system and to the files in the network is performed exclusively with the rights of the user involved, i.e.
for inbound requests (requests with initiative in the partner system):
the owner of the FTAC profile or the initiator of the request who identified himself or herself with user id,,password;for outbound request:
the user who submitted the request in the local system).
For this to be possible, the service must change to the identity of the user for certain actions. To this end, the service requires the login password of the user involved which must be made known to the service in openFT Explorer via Administration - User password... or by means of the ftsetpwd command. The password must be stored in the following cases:
for asynchronous access to NTFS files or UNC names
if you want to use FTAC profiles for inbound requests
for local and remote preprocessing, postprocessing and follow-up processing
for access to files via UNC names
Relative path names for inbound requests refer to the user-specific home directory. This can be defined by the system or domain administrator in the user management of Windows.
The home directory specified for the corresponding user in the User Manager is used as the home directory. If no such directory is specified, openFT creates the directory. For Windows 10 for example, this directory is located in user/userID.hostname or userID.domain.
