The file transfer service provides role-based authentication. You can enable authentication in the file transfer service using scripting and the wsadmin tool.
There are two versions of the file transfer Web application. For Versions 6.1.0.18 and earlier, by default, the version that does not authenticate its caller, which is referred to as the unsecured version, is installed. The unsecured version is located in the app_server_root/systemApps/filetransfer.ear directory.
Starting with Version 6.1.0.19, secure version of the file transfer Web application is installed by default. The secured version is located in the app_server_root/systemApps/filetransferSecured.ear directory.
In WebSphere® Application Server a mixed cell environments, file transfer is a system application. You can activate authentication in the file transfer service by redeploying the file transfer Web application at the deployment manager level.
