note

Note:

If the Date or Time Format is left blank, the default value is the format of the user executing the MFP Manager Service.

Do not use upper cases (ā€œMā€ and "MM") for ā€œminutesā€ because these are custom format specifier that represents ā€œmonthā€. Always use lower case for ā€œminuteā€.

Timeout

After successful saving of a document to Thereforeā„¢, the amount of time the system will wait before logging the user out or in the case of uniFLOW, returning to the splash screen. (Default is 30 seconds).

 

Webservice Port

Port which is used for webservice communication. (Default is 80).  

 

File Transfer Port

Port which is used for file transfer. This port must not be the same as the webservice port and both ports must be free. (Default is 8373).

 

Use secure connection (https and secure socket)

If checked, the MFP Application will use https for communication with the web service and secure socket connection for the file transfer.

 

Certificates are available via certificate authorities.

 

Self-signed certificates can be created using a Microsoft tool: Makecert.exe. This tool can be downloaded, but only together with the Windows SDK, from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa386968(VS.85).aspx

 

For an SSL certificate, a root authority certificate must be created which can be done using the following command (the certificate name "Dev Certification Authority" can be edited as required:

 

makecert -sv SignRoot.pvk -cy authority -r signroot.cer -a sha1 -n "CN=Dev Certification Authority" -ss my -sr localmachine

 

Then in the Microsoft Management Console (MMC), add the Certificates snap-in and move the "Dev Certification Authority"  (or your chosen name) certificate, from the Certificates folder under Personal to the Certificates folder in Trusted Root Certification Authorities, via drag and drop.

 

Then use the following command to create the SSL certificate (where localhost is the full, qualified domain name of the local computer):

 

makecert -iv SignRoot.pvk -ic signroot.cer -cy end -pe -n CN="localhost" -eku 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.1 -ss my -sr localmachine -sky exchange -sp "Microsoft RSA SChannel Cryptographic Provider" -sy 12

 

For detailed information about Makecert.exe specifically for certification creation see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bfsktky3.aspx

 

The next step is configuring the certificate for the Webservice port. This step is also required for certificates obtained from Certificate Authorities. The port must be the same as defined in the Solution Designer (above). The appid is 1d728dd3-2b81-489e-9af2-57bd847ee271. Configuration is described on the following website: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms733791.aspx

Location

 

 LocalMachine: this option should be chosen if your certificate was installed in the localmachine location (makecert: -sr localmachine).

 

CurrentUser: this option should be chosen if your certificate was installed in the currentuser location (makecert: -sr currentuser). Be aware that the MFP Manager needs to be running with the same user account.

 

 

Thumbprint

Open the certificate and go to the Details tab.  Scroll down to the Thumbprint, and copy and paste this value to the text box.  Note: you must manually delete all spaces.        

 

The Advanced tab allows modification of settings in a single, central location.
