Configuring Publish Folders for Client Files
Complete the SmartSync Server setup by configuring the publish folders. These folders will contain the published client files and the top-level parent files. All paths to the folders are specified in the IIS configuration.
The Wizard Installation creates the publish folder and the Smartsync path. Modify the path and add additional folders to specify locations, such as the SmartSync top-level parent files publish folder.
With the Manual Installation, publish folders must be created and configured.
Authentication for the Publish Folders
Modify the publish folder security settings to allow MACHINENAME\IUSR_MACHINENAME to have Read and List folder contents rights. If the installation is not using Windows Authentication, the account will also require Write and Modify permissions. The publish folder created by the Wizard Installation has this authentication set.
All users that will be publishing or replacing parent files require the Write and Modify permissions for this folder.
Note: Operating the SmartSync File Service using a named user requires the rights described above.
