How-To use Common Parameters within LimagitoX File Mover
In version 2020.2.28.0 we added an option called ‘Common Parameters’. The goal of this option is to make it easier for you to use common configuration items throughout your Moving Rules. We’ve added some screenshots to make it more clear.
> Common Parameters Setup can be found under the Common menu item.
> In the screenshot below you can see that we’ve added 4 of them:
%Body%
%From%
%Hostname%
%To%
All “Common Parameters” must start & end with a % sign.
> We’ll be using these Common Parameters within the Mail Event Setup of different Moving Rules.
> Added %From, %To% and %Body% to the Email Setup.
> Finally we’ll send a test email ..
If you want to use a “Common Parameter” in a certain setup field where it does not work yet, please let us know. We’ll add this asap.
If you need any help, please let us know.

How-To use Implicit vs Explicit SSL/TLS in LimagitoX File Mover
When we speak about “SSL“, it usually means “implicit” SSL/TLS. The client must negotiate an SSL/TLS session immediately upon connecting to the server’s port, before then reading the server’s already encrypted greeting or sending any encrypted commands. You’ll need to enable ‘Use Implicit SSL/TLS’ in the setup.
When we speak about “TLS”, it usually wants “explicit” SSL/TLS. The client must not negotiate an SSL/TLS session immediately upon connecting to the server’s port. It must read the server’s unencrypted greeting first, and then later it can send an appropriate STARTTLS command (if the server advertises support for it) to ask for permission to then negotiate an SSL/TLS session before sending any further encrypted commands. You’ll need to enable ‘Use Explicit SSL/TLS’ in the setup.
Default SSL/TLS Implicit vs Explicit Server Settings:
POP3:
Port 110: Explicit-TLS
Port 995: Implicit-SSL
IMAP:
Port 143: Explicit-TLS
Port 993: Implicit-SSL
SMTP:
Port 25: Unencrypted but could support Explicit-TLS
Port 465: Implicit-SSL
Port 587: Explicit-TLS
FTP(S):
Port 21: Unencrypted but could support Explicit-TLS
Port 990: Implicit-SSL
If you need help, please let us know.

How-To use an X.509 Certificate for SFTP Public Key Authentication
In version v2020.4.11.0 we added X.509 Certificate support for SFTP Public Key Authentication.
Some FAQ:
SFTP authentication using private keys is generally known as SFTP Public Key Authentication. So we need a private key file in the SFTP Setup.
As default we first try to load the RSA/DSA private key from the file.
If this doesn’t work we’ll try to import the file as X.509 Certificate.
Authentication with an X.509 certificate is possible in two modes:
Full: The certificate is sent to the server. This assumes the server can handle certificate authentication. Set ‘Cert Auth Mode’ to ‘Auto’ (= default).
Key-Only: Only the keypair is used. This works with servers that don’t support certificates. Set ‘Cert Auth Mode’ to ‘Raw Public Key’.
If you need any help, please let us know.
