iFolder 3.7 Cross-Platform User Guide .
6.10 Using a Response File to Automatically
Create iFolder Accounts
Installing iFolder client and configuring an account on each desktop is a difficult task when the
number of users are high. Without configuring an account, users cannot create iFolders or share
iFolders on the system. For each user, you must provide a username and the server address with
which they can configure an account by using the iFolder Account Assistant.To make these tasks
simpler, it’s useful to automate the process of installing and configuring iFolder. You can use a
deployment manager such as Novell ZenWorks
®
to automate the process of iFolder installation.To
make the iFolder account creation simpler and automatic, with little or no user interaction, you can
use the Auto-account creation feature.
iFolder Auto-account creation facility provides you an user-friendly XML-based response file that
helps you create accounts for multiple enterprise users. The response file contains the necessary
information in XML format such as default credential and server information to configure an
account.You can use any deployment manager to distribute the client RPMs along with the
customized response file to the user desktops.
