Establishing a connection

Top Previous Next

JSCAPE MFT Server Enterprise Edition has a built-in web based WebDAV Java applet that is integrated into the web server. This applet allows users to connect via WebDAV without having to install any client software.

Connect using integrated WebDAV Java applet

To connect via WebDAV using the integrated Java applet perform the following steps:

1. Load the JSCAPE MFT Server Web Gateway into your web browser.

2. Enter login credentials.

3. When prompted for "User Interface" select the "Java Applet" option and click "Login".

At this point the browser will load the integrated Java applet and automatically connect using the WebDAV protocol.

Note: You may optionally click the "Switch to Applet UI" button from HTML user interface to switch to the Java applet.

Connect using 3rd party WebDAV client

To connect using a 3rd party WebDAV client you will be prompted for the following information:

URL - The URL (Uniform Resource Locator) that you want to connect to. This generally takes the form of http://hostname:port/webdav/ or https://hostname:port/webdav/ for SSL encrypted connections.

Username - The username to connect with. This should be in the format of username@domain where username is the user you are logging in as and domain is the JSCAPE MFT Server domain you wish to login to.

Password - The password to connect with.
