DISCUSSION

To monitor EFT client activity, you can reference EFT’s log files, including the registration state of the modules, server/site functions, SFTP, SSL/TLS connections, and of course, errors and warnings. The EFT client activity log (also known as "TED6" logs) is used to log client connection information (event rules and outbound transfers), client commands/requests, remote server responses, and status messages. EFT client log files are saved in the C:\ProgramData\Globalscape\EFT Server\Logs\ folder.

The advanced property below is used to enable or disable client logs.

Add the name:value pair below to the AdvancedProperties.JSON file in the \ProgramData\ folder for EFT (for example, C:\ProgramData\Globalscape\EFT Server):

{
"EnableClientLogging":1
}

The default is 0, meaning that logging is disabled. A non-zero value enables logging.

MORE INFORMATION

This advanced property only enables or disables logging. If you want to change the format or location of the logs, that is done in the admin interface Server > Logs tab.
