System Administrator - Logging In

You can perform System Administration functions in both the FileHold Desktop Application (FDA) and the Web Client. The FDA has very limited System Administration functions whereas you can access all System Administration functions through the Web Client.

The System Administration features in FDA include:

• Users
• FileHold Groups

You will need to log in through the Web Client in order to gain access to all other System Administrator functions. All of the administration functions in FDA are performed almost exactly as they are in the Web Client.

To login as System Administrator via the Web Client

1. Open a Web Browser (Firefox and Internet Explorer are supported) and enter the path to the FileHold server. This may be set up as link on your desktop.

2. Enter your Login, Password, and select the domain (if required) and click Log In.

3. Click the System Admin link at the top of the screen. Once logged in, the different areas of the System Administration features will appear in the left panel.

NOTE: This System Administration section is only available to users designated as System Administrators. Non-administrator users will not see the link to the administration section. 

To login as System Administrator via the FDA

1. Log into FDA using a System Administrator username and password.

2. Go to Administration > System Administration from the menu bar.
