Configuring Scan to Desktop
Security for ShareScan inboxes
Scan to Desktop assigns permissions to individual ShareScan inboxes to ensure the appropriate
level of inbox privacy. It uses a group called “ShareScanAdmin” to implement the required security.
Scan to Desktop assigns permissions as follows:
Windows (NTFS)
■
Administrators — Full control.
■
Domain Admins — Full control. Not used in workgroups.
■
ShareScanAdmin — Full control.
■
<
owner
> — Read or Delete.
Novell (NetWare)
■
Admin — Full control.
■
ShareScanAdmin — Full control.
■
<
owner
> — Full control.
For important information about setting up folders, users, and groups, see “Setting up folders,
user, and groups” on page 59.
If you enable user authentication, the user must provide the password associated with the
recipient’s inbox before Scan to Desktop can deliver the scanned document. (Note, however, that
the administrative user specified on the Configure tab always writes the file to the inbox.)
Security for network home directories
With Windows and Novell home directories, network security ensures that only the owner can
write to and read from the scan inbox subfolder. Therefore, to deliver a scanned document to a
scan inbox in a network home directory, Scan to Desktop must connect as the directory’s owner.
To do this, Scan to Desktop prompts the user to enter authentication information for the target
directory.
About the Inbox Management directory
ShareScan inboxes are created beneath the Inbox Management location specified on Scan to
Desktop’s Configure tab. The list of registered users, userdirs.txt, is also stored in this location.
Whether you configure Scan to Desktop to use ShareScan inboxes or network home directories,
you must determine an appropriate location for the Inbox Management directory.
■
If you create the Inbox Management directory on a local drive on the PC running the Services
Manager, you must configure the inbox location as a share on an NTFS drive.
■
If you create the Inbox Management directory on a network server, you must configure the
inbox location as a NetWare drive or as a share on an NTFS drive.
