Version(s): 4.x - 5.x
Warning:    this articles refers to an older version of our software


From Syncplify.me Server! v1 through v3 groups’ usernames used to start with a star/asterisk and then the group name enclosed within square brackets. For example, the SFTP Users group would have the following username: *[SFTP Users]


As of version 4.0 (and all newer versions) we have removed the star/asterisk because we have introduced the concept of user type. Therefore starting from version 4, the SFTP Users group will be defined as follows.


Username: [sftp users]


User Type: Windows Group or Active Directory Group
