# File Server

## Connection to Agile e6

With the new release of the File Server NFS mounted hard disks are not necessary to submit files. No temporary file locations are used. As a result the following fields have to be filled for a vault :

Name | Any name up to 20 characters
Type | EIF, PUB or something else
Node | name of computer where the File Server executable is running
Disk + path | full file path to vault (see below)
Network reference | the RPC number of the File Server executable, remember the default of 804257548

The path name depends on the different types of vaults :

- For EIFF the default is just "area". This directory and its subdirectories will be checked and created during the start of File Server. If you want to use another one, you must create the caching subdirectories with its correct permission within the account of 'edbserv'. Do not forget to insert the full path specification excluding the cache subdirectories.
- For FMS the default is just "fms", created during the first start.
- For PUB the default is just "pub", automatically created.

If you want to use other directories or discs you need to insert the complete path in the machine-dependant syntax.
Usually you have to provide the File Server Client on each machine where the documents need to be accessed.
