Server Options

This Server Options tab allows you to manage server options.

Working Directory

The Working Directory displays the path to the directory on the server machine where Vault stores temporary files during its processing of commands.

To change the path, click Set Working Directory and type in new path.

Vault Session Timeout

Set the Vault Session Timeout, in minutes, for when a Vault client’s IIS session will timeout.

The default is 4320 minutes (72 hours).

IIS File Upload Limit (bytes)

The IIS File Upload Limit determines how large a single file can be while adding it to Vault. The size, in bytes, of the file upload limit in IIS is displayed.

Active Directory Domain for Authentication

The Active Directory Domain box determines whether users are able to authenticate their logins against activity directory accounts of the same name as their Vault account. When users authenticate against Active Directory, their domain password must be entered instead of the Vault password when logging into Vault.

The domain name of the Active Directory domain must be entered here to enable the feature.

Database Buffer Size

In the Database Buffer Size box, type the buffer size to use when transferring files.

The default is 768.

Login Delay Threshold

In the Login Delay Threshold box, type the number of login attempts a user can make before there will be a delay in allowing that user to attempt another login. This refers to consecutive login attempts without a successful login from the same location.

The default is 10.

Login Delay Timeout

In the Login Delay Timeout box, type the number of seconds a user must wait before they can attempt another login if they have failed to login by the number specified in the Login Delay Threshold box.

The default is 30.

Logging

Path to Log File

The Path to Log File displays the path to the server log file. The log file name is vaultlog.txt and will be placed in the log file path.

To change the path, click Set Log Directory and type in new path.

All error messages

·      Debug

The default is Quiet

Overwrite on startup

If checked, Overwrite on startup will overwrite the log file when the server is restarted.

The default is Unchecked.

Use Reverse DNS Checkbox

Check Use Reverse DNS to use reverse DNS to look up the machine name of the client when logging in.

The default is Checked.

Email Settings

The Email Settings button brings up the Email Settings dialog for the repository listed.

Apply

Click Apply to update the repository options.

Please Note: After a successful save of any of the options except the session timeout and the IIS upload limit, IIS must be restarted for changes to take effect.

If either session timeout or IIS upload limit is changed, IIS immediately restarts and the current session is no longer valid.
