Requirements:
- You have created a transfer user on your server.
- You have set up the transfer user with an SSH public key as described in
Setting Up Token Authorization.
The examples below use a transfer user called asp1.
-
Locate aspera.conf and open it with a plain-text editor
C:\Program Files (x86)\Aspera\Enterprise Server\etc\aspera.conf
-
Add an authorization section for the user
In the following example, the user section for asp1 contains an
<authorization> section that specifies the following:
- a <transfer> section specifying that both incoming and
outgoing transfers (in and out) should use token
encryption
- a <token> section with an encryption key, which should be
string of random characters (at least 20 recommended)
Alternatively, you can configure token-authorization settings in a
<group> section to be applied to all users in the group. Or,
you can configure the settings in the <default> section to apply
them globally for all
users.
