Storing on the Hard Disk

The ArcotID PKI is directly downloaded to the user’s hard disk. By default, the ArcotID PKI is downloaded to the %APPDATA%\arcot\ids folder.

ArcotID PKI Native Client also enables you to store ArcotID PKIs in a custom location. To download and store ArcotID PKIs in a custom location:

  1. Navigate to the <%SYSTEMDRIVE%>:\Program Files\Common Files\Arcot Shared\conf folder.
  2. Open the WebClient.ini file in a text editor.
  3. Set the ArcotIDLocation parameter to the location where you want to download the ArcotID PKI.
  4. Save and close the WebClient.ini file.

Note: If there is any error while storing the ArcotID PKI in a custom storage location, then the OnErrorStoreInDefaultLocation parameter is checked. If the value of this parameter is set to TRUE, then the ArcotID PKI is stored in the default location. Otherwise, an error is returned.
