Hello Pragma,

Does the Pragma FortressSSH product support user drive mapping? Does it support mapping of UNC paths?

Thank you.

Hello Anonymous123,

Pragma FortressSSH Server which is also a SFTP Server does offer the user drive mapping feature. To configure this feature for Pragma FortressSSH, launch the Local FortressSSH Configuration dialog from Windows Start Menu > Pragma Server Management shortcut.

For SSH user configuration, click on the following option located on the left pane of the Local FortressSSH Configuration dialog:  Users > Default or Your user > Logon. Select the checkbox labeled "Map User Drives". You may select the "Map drives in background" if you do not require the drives to be mapped as soon as you log on and arrive at the ssh shell. To complete the configuration, click on the "Apply" button.

For SFTP user configuration, click on the following option on the left pane of the Local FortressSSH Configuration dialog:
SFTP Users > Default or Your User. Select the checkbox labeled "Map User Drives". You may select the "Map drives in background" if you do not require the drives to be mapped as soon as you log on and arrive at the sftp prompt. To complete the configuration, click on the "Apply" button.


Below is the syntax for UNC Path configuration that can be entered in the Home Directory field under the Default User (or your user)  within the Local FortressSSH Configuration dialog:

X::UNCPath

UNCPath is in the form of \\Server\Share\path

Where
Server is the server containing the share
Share is the name of the share
path is a directory specification below the share.

For example:  W::\\Temp\SubDir\Folder2\AppDir will map the ‘W’ drive to \\Temp\SubDir  then set the home directory to W:\Folder2\AppDir.  Please note the two colons "::" are required in between the drive letter and the black slash.

Please note that if you log on the Windows server using a certain account and map a few drives and then use a different account to ssh locally (ssh localhost), those mapped drives will NOT be available to the ssh session. You need to ssh in using the same account that you used to mapped the drives with.

For support questions on the drive mapping feature of Pragma FortressSSH Server, please email us at support@pragmasys.com or call us at 512-219-7270.
