Host Name

Specifies the name of the external system that the adapter connects to.

If the parameter SSH Tunneling Enabled under the SSH Tunneling configuration settings is set to Yes, the parameters Host Name and Server Port, under the FTP settings, are ignored. In this case, the FTP host name is determined by an SSH option, according to the following model:

ssh -L ListenPort:FtpServerHost:FtpServerPort SSHServer

In the previous example, the FTP feature communicates with the FTP server FtpServerHost:FtpServerPort using an existing SSH tunnel. See SSH Tunneling (BatchFTP Connectivity Map) for details.

If the parameter Socks Enabled under the SOCKS configuration parameters is set to Yes, the host name under the FTP configuration could fail to resolve some names, for example, localhost or 127.0.0.1 correctly. Use real IP or machine names to represent the hosts. See SOCKS (BatchFTP Connectivity Map) for details.

The host name. 

Server Port

Specifies the port number to use on the FTP server when connecting to it.

If the parameter SSH Tunneling Enabled under the SSH Tunneling configuration is set to Yes, the parameters Host Name and Server Port under the FTP configuration are ignored. In this case, the FTP server port number is determined by an SSH option, according to the following model:

ssh -L ListenPort:FtpServerHost:FtpServerPort SSHServer

In the previous example, the FTP feature communicates with the FTP server FtpServerHost:FtpServerPort using an existing SSH tunnel. See SSH Tunneling (BatchFTP Connectivity Map) for details.

The server port number. 

User Name

Specifies the user name used to log onto the external system, when required.

A user name that provides access to the external system. 

Password

If a password is required to log on to an external system, enter the password that corresponds to the user name.

The corresponding Java accessor methods are getPassword(), setPassword(), and setEncryptedPassword().

The password. 

User Defined Heuristics Configuration File

Specifies the name and location of the user defined FTP heuristics configuration file. The format of the files content must be in the same form as that of the FTPHeuristics.cfg file. See To Create a Custom Heuristics Configuration File for more details.

This property works in conjunction with the property Table 3 User Defined Directory Listing Style property

The BatchFTP OTD will generate an exception if a selected User Defined Directory Listing Style or the User Defined Heuristics Configuration File path is not defined correctly. If a User Defined Directory Listing Style is specified, a corresponding value must also be provided for the User Defined Heuristics Configuration File property.

The location and name of the user defined FTP heuristics configuration file on the local host.
