The file transfer service provides role-based authentication. You can enable authentication in the file transfer service using scripting and the wsadmin tool.
There are
two versions of the file transfer Web application. For Versions 6.1.0.18
and earlier, by default, the version that does not authenticate its
caller, which is referred to as the unsecured version, is installed.
The unsecured version is located in the app_server_root/systemApps/filetransfer.ear directory.
Starting with Version
6.1.0.19, secure version of the file transfer Web application is installed
by default. The secured version is located in the app_server_root/systemApps/filetransferSecured.ear directory.
The file transfer Web application, which
handles both authenticated and non-authenticated requests, is located
in the app_server_root/systemApps/filetransfer.ear directory.
In WebSphere® Application Server a mixed cell environments,
file transfer is a system application. You can activate authentication
in the file transfer service by redeploying the file transfer Web
application at the deployment manager level.
