FileCOPA FTP Server - Events

Top  Previous  Next

Global events, whereby actions such as messages to the FTP client, email messages to the Server Administrator or sounds on the server can be configured in response to various events, such as users logging onto the server, uploading or downloading files.

This is identical to events configured user by user, and if there is a conflict, the User Event will supersede any Global event configured here.

Date Format

The Short Date Format for events is taken from the System Time Format, not from the user's configuration. The two may coincide, or they may not!

System Time Format is defined in a Registry entry:

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\International\sShortDate

For US Date Format this should be MM/dd/yyyy

For UK (and most other countries) Format this should be dd/MM/yyyy
