SYNOPSYS

Retriever URI:

file:filepath

file://hostname/filepath

i.e.

file:/etc/passwd

file://masterhost/etc/passwd

DESCRIPTION

The file retriever is the most simple retriever driver: It just provides access to a file in the file system of the machine the Director runs on.

If the second URI form file://hostname/filepath is used then the file retriever will only allow connecting to a file in case the host name provided is the name or an alias of the local machine.
