Configuration files

BlueZone Secure FTP has the ability to import and export configuration files directly to and from the Windows Registry. A tremendous asset for systems administrators, these files can then be used on other machines to set the application's configuration settings.

Exporting all configuration settings to a file

  1. From the menu bar, click File Save As. The Save Configuration As dialog displays.
  2. Type a file name.
    Note: You do not have to type in the file extension; the correct file extension is automatically supplied.
  3. Click Save.

Importing all configuration settings from a file

  1. From the menu bar, click File Open. The Open Configuration dialog displays.
  2. Select or browse to the desired configuration file.
  3. Click Open. The application uses the configuration settings stored in this configuration file.
    Note: To store imported Windows Registry changes, go to the menu bar and click File Save.

Using the Start Configuration file

System administrators can preconfigure the application by saving the desired configuration settings to a file named start and then including the file on the distribution image. When the application is launched, it looks for a file named start.zft and auto-opens the file if it exists.
