Each refresh of the browser counts as one session, so do not click the browser's Refresh icon or F5. Click the Refresh icon in the WTC instead, which refreshes the display without requesting a new session.
Before users can log in to EFT Server using the Web Transfer Client, the EFT Server administrator must configure EFT Server to allow the Web Transfer Client connections. EFT Server allows users concurrent access to the Web Transfer Client up to the number of available licenses. If a user attempts to access the client when the maximum number of licenses is in use, an HTML upload form loads instead.
To connect to the Web Transfer Client
Type in the URL provided to you by your EFT Server administrator, then press ENTER.
If a login dialog box appears, type the username and password provided to you by the EFT Server administrator. You might have to type the domain in front of your username. For example, globalscape\WTCuser.
If each of the Web Transfer Client licenses is in use, you will see a message stating so, and will be redirected to the HTML Listing and Upload form, where you can still browse and upload files.
On Internet Explorer, a message might appear that says "Your security settings do not allow Web sites to use Active X controls installed on your computer." Close the popup bar.
If the correct version of Java is not installed, a message might appear asking you to install it. Click the link to install Java from the java.com download page. If you are unsure which version to install, or you do not have permission to install applications, contact your network administrator.
If you receive a message regarding the certificate, accept it. If you select the "always accept certificates from this publisher" check box, you will not have to accept the certificate every time.
The folders and files in your local file system and remote filesystem appear in their respective panes.

To log off of the Web Transfer Client
Click Log Out. A message appears.
When the browser is closed, the session expires within 5 minutes. The timeout is not user configurable. When your WTC session ends, the Queue pane is cleared automatically. That is, if you were to immediately log back in, the Queue pane would be empty.
