Frequently Asked Questions: All You Need to Know

Triofox enhances centralized file management by integrating seamlessly with DFS shares and utilizing existing NTFS permissions for a secure and efficient framework. This integration allows for streamlined operations and ensures compliance, making it easier to manage permissions across distributed file systems.

Yes, Triofox honors NTFS permissions for DFS shares, ensuring that user access rights are preserved when accessing files. However, Triofox itself does not manage or alter these permissions directly, maintaining the integrity of your existing security settings.

Yes, Triofox can publish and present archival folders, allowing users with appropriate access to view files stored in archival locations. This feature ensures seamless data availability across your organization.

Yes, Triofox allows sharing files and folders with external users securely. Options for read-only access, password protection, and access expiration are available to ensure data security and compliance.

Triofox's file locking feature ensures that when the first user opens a file, it is locked for that user. If other users try to open it, they will receive a message indicating the file is in use, preventing version conflicts and ensuring data integrity.

For DFS integration with Triofox, if deployed internally, only port 443 needs to be open. If deployed in the DMZ, additional ports as specified by Triofox may be required, ensuring secure and efficient integration.

Triofox is designed to efficiently handle large data sets by honoring existing NTFS and DFS permissions without duplicating or overriding them. For auditing, it captures activities done through its interface, ensuring minimal impact on performance.

If a file is directly deleted from the share, it would be gone because the source header is gone. Users will not be able to restore the file through Triofox in this scenario, highlighting the importance of using Triofox for file management and deletion.
