Step by Step Local Security Access for Windows Environments

1. Stop Transfer CFT
2. Rename or copy the security environment configuration file
(Transfer_CFT\runtime\conf\sec.ini.smp into sec.ini)
3. Review the security configuration (Transfer_CFT\runtime\conf\secparm.smp)
4. Extract your existing configuration from the command prompt window
CFTUTIL CFTEXT > TransferCFT_conf.txt
5. Edit the TransferCFT_conf.txt file and add a default CFTAPPL if it does not already exist
CFTAPPL ID=IDFDEF,
userid=&userid,
direct=both
6. Create new initialization commands for Transfer CFT internal files, update the number of
records for the Catalog and the Communication media based on your requirements.
Save the file as runtime\cftinit.txt
************************************************
CFTFILE type = PARM, HABFNAME = $SEC.INI, fname = data\CFTPARM
CFTFILE type = PART, HABFNAME = $SEC.INI, fname = data\CFTPART
CFTFILE type = CAT, HABFNAME = $SEC.INI, fname = data\CFTCATA, recnb = 200
CFTFILE type = COM, HABFNAME = $SEC.INI, fname = data\CFTCOM, recnb = 100
************************************************
7. Backup the data directory (Transfer_CFT\runtime\data)
8. Delete the Transfer CFT configuration internal files
Transfer_CFT\runtime\data\CFTPARM*, CFTPART*, CFTCATA and CFTCOM
9. Create the access security internal database
secutil #secparm.smp (run this command from runtime\conf directory)
10. Re-create the internal Transfer CFT file to use the security system
cftutil #cftinit.txt (run this command from runtime directory)
11. Import the existing configuration
cftutil #TransferCFT_conf.txt (run this command from runtime directory)
Note that it is normal to have some unknown commands (8 at the top and 5 at the bottom), it is
due to the configuration extraction format.
12. Re-start Transfer CFT
The message indicating that the security is active (HAB) should appear in Transfer CFT Log.
