Tip: Aliases – Globally Inform Users of Particular Group

This is useful when you want to inform or notify all users of a particular group of your IceWarp FTP Server. For such a purpose you will include a folder or file into all FTP user accounts listed for this group. To do that, create an alias like this:

Notify users

Locate the message or announcement into your local G:\information\ folder.

Now, to add this directory to all user accounts, simply add this alias into path permissions of a group or users you want to notify.

Path Permissions for group annoncement
