On the Advanced page of the Settings dialog you can configure additional file transfer GUI options. The new settings will affect subsequently started file transfer windows.

The file transfer settings made here only affect the Tectia File Transfer GUI, not the SFTP conversion or command-line tools related to file transfer. |
The following settings affect the file transfer:
Selecting this option forces lower case file names in file transfers.
Select this check box if you want the transferred files to retain their original time and date stamp values. If this option is not selected, the transferred files will be stamped with the time of the transfer.
The following settings affect the upload process:
Select this check box to preserve the file permissions on the server. If the transferred file overwrites an existing file, it will use the same file permissions as the original file. If the file is new, it will use the default permission mask of the server target directory.
Clear this check box to force new file permissions on uploaded files. Define the permissions in New file permissions and New directory permissions below.
Type the octal Unix file permission mask (as with the Unix
chmod
command) that is to be used as the value for uploaded
files.
Octal (base-8) notation consists of three digits. The first digit specifies the permissions given to the owner of the file, the second digit specifies the permissions for the user group associated with the file, and the last digit specifies the permissions given to all other users.
Each of the three digits has one of the following values:
0: No permissions.
1: The file can be executed.
2: The file can be written to.
3: The file can be written to and executed. (2 + 1 = 3)
4: The file can be read.
5: The file can be read and executed. (4 + 1 = 5)
6: The file can be read and written to. (4 + 2 = 6)
7: The file can be read, written to and executed. (4 + 2 + 1 = 7)
For example, 644 (in symbolic notation -rw-r--r--
) specifies that the owner
of the file has permission to read and write to the file, and the user group and others can only read the file.
Type the octal Unix directory permission mask (as with the Unix
chmod
command) that is to be used as the value for
uploaded directories.
The notation is the same as for New file permissions.
The following settings affect the file transfer process:
Type the number of buffers used in file transfer. The default value is 10.
Type the default buffer size (measured in kilobytes). The default value is 32 kilobytes.
This selection affects how Tectia ConnectSecure reacts if you locally edit a file stored in the remote host computer.
If you select this option, the locally modified file is uploaded to the remote host computer.
If you select this option, the locally modified file is not uploaded to the remote host computer.
If you select this option, Tectia ConnectSecure asks you to decide if you want to upload a locally modified file.
