xp_startsmtp with trusted_certificates using UNC name

SQL Anywhere 12.01

Can I use in xp_startsmtp system procedure, trusted_certificates parameter with path to certificate file with UNC path like this:

'\\192.168.0.1\remote_pc\certs\Equifax_Secure_Certificate_Authority.cer'

I tried also: '\\\\192.168.0.1\\remote_pc\\certs\\Equifax_Secure_Certificate_Authority.cer'.

But both locations do not work :/

Only works when I specify local path: 'C:\\\local_catalog\\\this_pc\\Equifax_Secure_Certificate_Authority.cer'

This procedure do not support paths as UNC names?

I don't know but just want to ask whether you have doubled the backslashes accordingly, i.e. used four backslashes before the server name and two for the remaining directories?

Yes, I also tried with doubled backslashes

3	The problem was that the local system account has no network rights by default. When I run the service under a user with the necessary rights, then all works ok. permanent link answered 12 May '16, 07:41 BlueMark 316●13●18●27 accept rate: 66% flat view
