Simple Distribution of
FTP/SMTP settings

Some users may experience difficulties entering the correct parameters for automated
FTP uploads and automatic SMTP mailer settings, in some instances a Network
Administrator may even wish to prevent the changing of these settings by standard users.

For those situations Network Administrators can create a file containing FTP upload and
SMTP mailer settings for individual users, which will be imported automatically into
LogTag Analyzer on start-up and replace the settings already present in the Options for
Automation.

Creating such settings files requires a tool called LogTag Settings Editor, which is available
through your distributor. There are two different versions of this tool, one for the
Standard LogTag Analyzer version, one for the Unicode LogTag Analyzer version. Files
created for the Standard version will not work for the Unicode version and vice versa.

Starting the LogTag Settings Editor displays a simple interface offering the same controls
as they are present in the Option - Automation window for the FTP upload and SMTP
mailer settings, with additional controls to save and load settings files.

Network Administrators are expected to be familiar with the parameters required for these
settings, for a description of each entry see

Automatic Uploading to FTP sites and

automatic e-mailing
