We are using Serv-U MFT to share files with our clients. Is there a way to generate the sharing links programmatically? We have a portal where customers enter the details and upload the files for a particular job - my idea is to provide a file request link in place of upload functionality.

More and more of our customers are using the Microsoft Edge browser and complaining that uploads of large files do not work – there is not even a warning notice as when using Internet Explorer. Since Edge, the default browser on the leading operating system in desktop usage, has been around for over a year, we would highly…

I see the "Allow File Sharing" option in Limits and Settings for Users and Groups, but by default it is 'YES'. I do not see a way of setting this to 'NO' by default and then…
