Associating an Existing My webMethods Server User with ActiveTransfer
If a user is already defined as a My webMethods Server user but does not have an ActiveTransfer profile, use this procedure to associate the user with ActiveTransfer.
*To associate an existing My webMethods Server user with ActiveTransfer
1. In My webMethods: Administration > Integration > Managed File Transfer > User Management > Users.
2. Select the server instance. For details, see Selecting the Instance to Work With.
3. Click the button above the list of users.
4. In the Add User dialog box, click Search for Existing Users and enter the search criteria in the Existing User Search box.
5. In the search results, select the check box next to the users that you want to associate with ActiveTransfer.
6. Click Advanced Settings.
7. If you want to change the user’s password, select the Change Password check box and then either generate a random password or create a specific password for the user.
8. Specify the ActiveTransfer Server ports to include in emails sent to users along with the user credentials:
*To include ports that are listed as Default in Emails in the Server Management page, select Default Ports.

ActiveTransfer Server creates an ActiveTransfer profile for the user and lists the user on the Users page.
Tip:
To delete a selected user, select the user and click . This action does not delete the user from the system directory or from the external directory service. Rather, it removes the association between the user and ActiveTransfer.

ActiveTransfer Server sends emails by way of the SMTP server configured in webMethods Integration Server. For information about the SMTP server configuration, see webMethods Integration Server Administrator’s Guide.
