All of the certificates successfully installed in the Windows Certificate Store will be available when
using the Acronis Access Configuration Utility.
Configure Acronis Access to use your certificate
After you've successfully installed your certificate to your certificate store, you have to configure
Acronis Access to use that certificate.
1. Launch the Acronis Access Configuration Utility.
Note: Located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Acronis\Access\Configuration Utility by default.
2. Select your certificate from the Certificate selector on the Gateway Server and Access Server
tabs.
3. Click Apply.
The web services will restart and after about a minute they should be running with your certificate.
5.8 Creating a Drop Folder
This guide will cover setting up a Drop Folder using Acronis Access and Windows Active Directory. A
Drop Folder is a folder in which certain users can only add new files and folders (without the ability to
edit or delete any of the files) while other users have full control.
In the Active Directory, do the following:
1. Either select two existing LDAP groups or create two new groups. One will be used for the
superusers (e.g. Group A is for Administrators, Teachers, Doctors) while the other will be for the
drop-only users (e.g. Group B is for Clients, Students, Patients).
2. For each group add the desired members.
On the machine where the Drop Folder will reside, do the following:
Creating the Drop Folder
1. Create a new folder. This will be your Drop Folder.
2. Right-click on the folder and select Properties.
3. Click on the security tab and press Edit.
4. On the new window press Add, enter the name of the group you want to add and press OK. Do
this for both LDAP groups and for the Creator Owner group.
5. Press OK to close the new window and return to the Security tab.
