Configuring Sharing and Security Permissions

If you are using a Windows Share as the file system and logging directory for a WS_FTP Server cluster, you must configure certain sharing and security permissions. These objects require read, write, and modify permissions:

• Windows user account used in the WS_FTP host’s Impersonation Settings (see Changing user context via user impersonation in the WS_FTP Server Manager Help for more information)
• Computer account for Node 1 of the cluster
• Computer account for Node 2 of the cluster
• Local Administrator group (present with read and write permissions by default)

The Windows share and the Nodes in the cluster must be in the same domain. You must also be able to authenticate as a domain administrator to set permissions for the Share folder.
