Disabling Anonymous Ftp Authentication; Creating A Virtual Host Name - Avid Technology NEXIS File Gateway Setup And User Manual

Disabling Anonymous FTP Authentication

You must disable the default "Anonymous Authentication" to prevent automatic connections to the
default Avid virtual hostname ("Blade FTP Share").
To disable anonymous FTP Authentication:
1. Open the FTP Authentication page.
2. Disable Anonymous Authentication.

Creating a Virtual Host Name

The ISIS FTP Share and the File Gateway server FTP Share both use Port 21. Create a virtual host
name using a different name than the actual host name (an alias name is required), as follows.
To create a virtual host name using the FTP Site Bindings:
1. On the File Gateway server, right-click My Computer and select Manage.
The Server Manager window opens.
2. In the left pane of the Service Manager window, click the plus sign (+) to expand the Roles >
Web Server (IIS) > Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
