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; a secured version and an unsecured
version. The secured version of this file, which is the version that
authenticates its caller, is installed by default. The secured version
is located in the app_server_root/systemApps/filetransferSecured.ear directory.
The unsecured version, which is the version that does not authenticate
its caller, is located in the app_server_root/systemApps/filetransfer.ear directory
The file transfer Web application, which
handles both authenticated and non-authenticated requests, 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.
