File Share Web Interface and email translation

$
0
0

Hello!

There is an option to choose from different languages while logging on File Share Web Interface. Also we can use strings-files to make or customize translations which is very good.

But all the emails and File share guest interface are english only. Is there any possibility to translate them also? Can i configure default user language?

 

Thank you!


Automated FTP

$

I have a client that wants to automate the sending of files from an internal directory to an external FTP site. They have about 10 (ten) directories where files are placed and they want to scan every 5 to 10 mins and when the files are there to be sent via FTP to external site. They are currently doing this with Voyager on their workstation via a scheduled task.

 

Thanks

Serv-u loads only one processor core during high-load operations

$

Our team noticed that Serv-u started to work very slow, did not allow pretty much every new connection/login. It started to happen after import of ~500 users where some of them had missing Home Directories (that was the core issue eventually). It happened for a few days in a row. Looks like Serv-u initialized some user validations which took all available for it CPU. Serv-u did not provide any explanation what is going on.

Anyway when we were digging into the issue we noticed that on the multi (6) core server Serv-u consumes only one core but completely (at glance 80+%).

Questions:

1 how to make sure that Serv-u can use all available server resources in particular all processor cores?

2 am I right about user Home Driectopry validation in the background? if so could the case with 500+ users with wrong directories trigger such a slowness?

3 according to the import description do you think it is expected behavior for Serv-u to halt the ftp server behind the scene without reason explanation? maybe I need to look at specific place in the app/log/system to understand what is going on?

I am Running Sercv-u v15.1.5.10

 

I have a user created and can access their HOME FOLDER just fine (!!! Serv-U_Home Folders !!!/DAVE)

 

I have created 3 folder under DIRECTORY ACCESS...(THEY ALL HAVE FULL ACCESS) (I ALSO SET THE USE NAME AND PASSWORD UNDER ADVANCED)

 

Access as Windows User

User Name:

Password:

Windows Domain Name (optional):

 

 

They are on SEPERATE NAS DEVICES

\\NAS1\TEST1

\\NAS2\TEST2

\\NAS3\TEST3

 

Under VIRTUAL PATHS I created them as follows:

 

Physical Path

\\NAS1\TEST1

\\NAS1\TEST2

\\NAS3\TEST3

 

Virtual Path

%HOME%\TEST1

%HOME%\TEST2

%HOME%\TEST3

 

Now when I FTP to the Serv-u Server all 3 of the VIRTUAL PATH show up as they should....but I cannot get into the folders

I get the following error:

 

2018.04.20 12:56:13.523] CWD /D:/!!! Serv-U_Home Folders !!!/DAVE/TEST1

I checked each NAS to verify the Username/Password

Sorry for my English

I want to establish in IP access a block to IP's of a line, it would be correct to do:

15.26.0.2-15.28.5.250

To perform it in the range between these values?

Thank you

I'm sporadically getting the following error when someone logs in to upload.  Their upload will be terminated and connection closed.  This is a 13MB file, so it's not huge.  Server is AWS m4.xlarge (4 vcpu, 16GB mem) and doesn't get much traffic.

Create a Linux share in Serv-U

I have Serv-U MFP installed on Windows. I have several network shares on a few Windows servers. In the Serv-U server, I have already added those shares to Serv-U by adding them as directories and I have created virtual paths. All of this works just fine with no issues.

 

Is there a way to provide the same type of access to files on a Linux server? I currently use WinSCP (on a Windows PC) to access files on the Linux server with a SFTP connection on port 22. My connection settings in WinSCP are:

 

...

Protocol: SFTP

Hostname: 192.168.1.210

Port: 22

Username: root

Password: ******

Does Serv-U supports offload SFTP Encryption

Hi

 

Does Serv-U MFT supports SFTP Encryption offload at the NetScaler Load Balancer?

2 Serv-U MFT Servers are behind a Citrix Netscaler Load Balancer.

Client connects to netscaler load balancer with the SSH key then netscaler passes the traffic non encrypted traffic directly to the Serv-U server


SSH Private Key

Hi All

I am setting up an new SFTP domain and wish to use higher key length (2048)

I have created an SSH Private key with 2048 Key length and save the key file and configured as per article Configuring Serv-U For SFTP Access

When I save the Config I can see the SSH fingerprint in the resulting screen

However when I connect with WINSCP, I can see that the fingerprint Warning is still using the default 1024 key that seams to come with Serv-u

Any idea how to ensure that clients use my 2048 key?

Thanks
