File name search and supported wildcards in the Serv-U Web Client

In the Web Client you can search for files using the File Search button located under the file list pane. You can use the following wildcards:

  • Use the "*" parameter to search for files when the whole file name is unknown (for example, .*.txt, *SearchPhrase*, *FileName*).
  • Use the "?" parameter when a specific character is unknown in the file name (for example, .????Name.txt, FileName.???).
  • Use the "[ ]" parameter when a specific character is unknown but should contain one of the specified characters in the brackets (for example, .[fmn]ileName.txt, File[fmn]ame.txt).
