File System Fingerprinting Wizard - Root Folder

Use the Root Folder page of the file system fingerprinting wizard to identify the folders to scan:

1. Enter the Root folder or root directory of the files and folders you want to scan. A root folder is the highest folder in the hierarchy.

   For example, to scan \\Server\Public\shared \User1, \\Server\Public\shared \User2, and \\Server\Public\shared \User3, enter:

   \\Server\Public\shared

   • The path cannot exceed 256 characters.
   • Select the specific files and folders to scan on the Scanned Files page (the next page in the wizard).
2. Enter the User name for an account with administrative rights to the shared folder. Read permissions are not sufficient.
3. Enter the Password for this account.
4. Optionally, enter the Domain name for the account.
5. Click Next to continue. See File System Fingerprinting Wizard - Scanned Files section.

When you click Next, Forcepoint DLP tries to connect to the root folder using the given credentials. You are alerted if the attempt fails.
