Configuration Dialog Box
The Configuration dialog box displays the following items:
User Based Security

Security Path
Defines the path to your security files. By default, iFIX sets the security path to the Local path.
NOTE: If you define a file server directory as your security path, you also need to define a backup path. The backup path allows operators to log into iFIX while the file server is unavailable. The backup path and should be a local drive.
Backup Path
Defines a second path to your security files. By default, iFIX sets the backup path to the local path.
NOTE: If you have defined a file server as your security path, you need to define a backup path.
Use These Paths for All Startup Profiles

NOTE: If you disable global security paths and you are using Terminal Services, you must configure security individually for each iFIX user.
