Permanent (non-Bonjour) server records generally offer more flexibility, allowing to edit things like login name, display title, startup path, SFTP public key authentication, etc. The Pin button, found on Bonjour server records, can be used to quickly create a permanent record for a server, eliminating the need to find this server via Bonjour the next time you need to access this server or sync to it. Please note that not all local servers will advertise themselves via Bonjour. If you`re trying to connect to a server on a local WiFi network, and this server advertises itself via Bonjour protocol, you can find this server and connect to it automatically, without manually entering its connection parameters, by tapping Connect, then tap Find Servers. You can always edit server record data by pressing the "settings" mini-button to the right of server title in the server records list. In these cases GoodReader doesn`t store your password at all, and can`t control how often you`re asked to enter it. Some servers, like Dropbox, OneDrive, box.com, and Google Drive, provide a proprietary authentication mechanism via their own webpage.
You will be asked to enter readable title of a server record (this title is what you will see in a server records list), user name and password to access this server, URL of a server (except for pre-configured servers, for which GoodReader knows their URLs), and possibly some other connection parameters, depending on a server type.įor extra security, don`t store a password in a server record, this way you will have to enter it manually every time when connecting. To create a server record, open the Connect control panel, find the servers section and press the Add button. Before connecting to a server, its record must be created.
