NetLinx Security with a Terminal Connection

A single '/' is sufficient to grant access to all files and directories in the user directory and it's sub- directory. The '*' wildcard can also be added to enable access to all files. All entries should start with a '/'. Here are some examples of valid entries:

Path	Notes
/	Enables access to the user directory and all files and
	subdirectories in the user directory.
/*	Enables access to the user directory and all files and
	subdirectories in the user directory.
/user1	If user1 is a file in the user directory, only the file is granted
	access. If user1 is a subdirectory of the user directory, all
	files in the user1 and its sub-directories are granted access.
/user1/	user1 is a subdirectory of the user directory. All files in the
	user1 and its sub-directories are granted access.
/Room1/iWebControlPages/*	/Room1/iWebControlPages is a subdirectory and all files
	and its subdirectories are granted access.
/results.txt	results.txt is a file in the user directory and access is
	granted to that file.

By default, all accounts that enable HTTP Access are given a '/*' Directory Association if no other Directory Association has been assigned to the account.

When you are prompted to enter the path for a Directory Association, the NetLinx Master will attempt to validate the path. If the directory or file is not valid (i.e. it does not exist at the time you entered the path), the NetLinx Master will ask you whether you were intending to grant access to a file or directory. From the answer, it will enter the appropriate Directory Association. The NetLinx Master will not create the path if it is not valid. That must be done via another means, most commonly by using an FTP client and connecting to the FTP server on the NetLinx Master.
