/QFileSvr.400 authorizations

[Former Member]

We have four partitions in our i5 520, two of which run SAP (one for DEV and one for PRD). We need to send a file created within SAP to one of our vendors using SFTP and we are running into an authorization problem.

Our business rules currently only allow SFTP from one partition and it is a partition that does NOT host SAP. Therefore, we are attempting to generate the file in SAP and place it in the IFS of the SFTP partition using the share set up via /QFileSvr.400. Then, a scheduled process will transmit the file using SFTP on the non-SAP partition.

We have the links set up between the partitions but there seems to be an authorization problem when we attempt to write the file to the IFS of the non-SAP partition. *PUBLIC has all permissions to the directory and R3OWNER is the owner of the directory with all permissions.

Can anyone give me some guidance?

Thanks in advance,

Robert

I forgot to add that the error we are receiving is:

Wrong order of calls <- CALL opendir: Permission denied.(,,..)

Message no. S1204

Hi Robert,

The User accessing your SFTP partion must exist on both partitions with the same password.

Thanks for the information. We were already aware of that but our problem is we do not know which user profile to use and even if we did, we do not know the current password if it is one of the R3 type users, i.e., <sid><instance>, R3OWNER, R3GROUP, etc., because we didn't set up the system and the person who did is no longer with the company.

Is there a standard password for these user profiles?

In the meantime, we've created a work around using a share in /QFileSvr.400.

Hi Robert,

R3owner & R3group do not have a password in the default (therefore cannot be used for QFileSvr.400)

SIDnn has be default "SAPnnPWD" - and needs to be in sync on the systems ...
