File servers & connectors
The Pulsor agent
A small signed program that sends the documents of a computer or server to Pulsor.
When to use it
When your documents are on a computer or a server Pulsor cannot reach from the internet. The agent runs inside your network and only makes outgoing connections to Pulsor: no port to open.
Install
- File servers → Add → Pulsor agent: download the version for Windows, macOS or Linux and copy the pairing code.
- Run the installer and paste the address and code (one paste is enough: « address + code » are copied together).
- Choose the folders to send.
The agent then runs in the background, with an icon in the menu bar or the taskbar (pause, resume, synchronize now).
Signed and verified
- macOS: signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple;
- Windows: signed by ELECTRAPPS — your IT department can make Windows recognize the signature;
- every update is signed by Pulsor and checked by the agent before it installs; an agent never goes back to an older version.
Windows rights
On a Windows server, Pulsor can reuse each file's Windows rights: you map Windows groups to departments or roles, and a file nobody mapped can read goes to Classer — Pulsor never opens a file wider than Windows does.
