Hello,
I want to use unc shares like \\192.168.20.100\share$ which require username and password as source share. But I have no idea how to fix username and password for the connection.
FFS is meant to run as windows task in the background with no user logged in.
Anyone knows how to do this?
Kind regards,
Stefan

If the username and password for 192.168.20.100 are identical to your Windows username and password, you don't need to do anything special.
If they are different:
In the Windows Credentials Manager you can create a user/password combination to be used when identifying towards the network resource 192.168.20.100.
Those credentials will then be used for every connection that is made to 192.168.20.100 (for the Windows user under which account the credentials were created).
If you schedule your FFS sync task to be run as a specific (Windows) user, you should create the credentials for your sync task via the Credentials Manager when logged-in as that specific (Windows) user.
