File Property Monitor

Hi,

I'm trying to set up a directory monitor but when I click on sample it says it can't find the directory. When I switch to monitor the C:\Windows directory it works fine, but for any directory that has been added manually it does not work. Anyone have any ides ?.

Clint_PCC,

Are you trying to monitor a directory on the ipMonitor system or on a remote system? If the latter, make sure to specify a UNC name such as \\server\sharename\directory\filename.ext and also make sure to give the Monitor a Credential that points to a domain account with access to that share.

Let me know if this helps or not.

Sincerely,
