Virtual PathField

For each search path you enable remote access, an extra layer of security can be added by defining the Virtual Path. This string works as a key required to access the project in that folder.

If the folder allows remote access and no virtual path is defined, any remote user connected to this server will have access to query projects from that folder.


Info

The platform will look for .tproj files in the paths set. If the list is empty, check the search paths or the connection with the remote server. Also, try Creating a New Project. If an error occurs when the project is loading, a log is created at "C:\Users\Public\Documents\TLocalSettings\".

Any folder included on Local Search Folders can be enabled or not for Remote Access. 

The permissions for remote users access is by folder, therefore place your projects on the folders accordingly. You can keep many projects in one folder, or create a folder for each one. 

To manage remote access for your projects:

  1. After adding a search path, select the one you would like to allow remote access.
  2. Check Allow Remote Access to enable remote access for selected folder.
  3. Check Allow Remote Run to enable projects from selected folder to be run by remote users.

  4. If necessary, enter a Virtual Path.
