1.3.3.2 - Install ation Prerequisites And Suggesti ons
n You will be prompted to enter the following information when configuring the eCopy connector for LDAP: User
name, password and IP address, DNS name or URL for the directory being used, search criteria for users and
recipients, LDAP Attributes, LDAP port number, and Base DN of the base or root directory in which to search.
n For configuring the eCopy connector for SMTP, you will need to enter the SMTP server IP address or DNS
name that will be used for outgoing messages, user name and password, and the SMTP port number.
1.3.4 - eCopy Scan to Desktop
1.3.4.1 - Install ation Prerequisites And Suggesti ons
n Scan to Desktop involves several different components to enable users to scan and send documents to a
designated network folder location for modification and storage. A “Scan Inbox” subfolder may be added to
existing network home directories or the ShareScan software can create Scan Inbox folder locations. The Inbox
Root (Inbox Management directory) stores the user list (userdirs.txt) that indicates which users have scan
inboxes using Scan to Desktop and whether ShareScan has created Inbox folders; these folders would also
reside under this directory.
n For detailed information on configuring Scan to Desktop, see the ShareScan Help, accessible via pressing F1
on the Administration Console.
Note:
Having the Inbox Root Folder pointing to the existing Network Home Directory Root Folder is NOT supported, as
ShareScan modifies the permissions on the root folder.
Inbox Root Directory
The Inbox Root Directory can reside on the ShareScan Services Manager PC or on a network server. If the directory
resides locally, it must be configured as a share on an NTFS drive. If the directory resides on a network server, it must
be configured as a share on an NTFS drive or on a NetWare drive.
The Inbox Root Directory should not be pointing to a user’s home directory. Choose the Scan to Desktop Home
Directory option in the connector instead.
Note:
Network home directories configured through a login script are not supported.
ShareScanAdmin Group
An Administrative Group must be used to implement the required security. In previous versions of ShareScan, this group
required the name “ShareScanAdmin”. This Administrative Group can now be given any name; however, if multiple
Services Managers are pointing to the same userdirs.txt file in the lnbox Root Directory, the group to which the
service account belongs must be identical on all those Services Managers.
