This page lets you establish a name for the proxy account, proxy rights group, and the communications group.
File Reporter uses a proxy account so that Agents can access all of the servers for scanning. A proxy rights group makes it easier to manage the rights of the proxy account. The Scan Processor uses the communications group to secure who can access its service.
The Configuration Wizard establishes default account and group names, which you can modify.
If you are upgrading from a previous version of File Reporter, the Proxy Account and Proxy Rights Group fields will specify the existing proxy account and proxy rights group such as nfrproxy and nfrproxyrights respectively.
Click Next.
Specify the name for the Admins Group and Report Users Group, or use the default names.
The Report Users Group is a group that File Reporter creates in Active Directory. Members of this group have access to all stored reports.
Click Next to create the two groups.
Click Finish.
The Engine is now installed, configured, and running.
