APPENDIX BWatchGuard File LocationsThis appendix gives the location where common data files are kept by the WatchGuard® System Managersoftware. Since it is possible to configure the Windows operating system (OS) to put these directorieson different disk drives, you must know the correct location of these files based on the configurationof Windows on your computer.It is also possible to configure log files to be kept in a different directory than other installation files. Ifyou change the default location of log files, these default locations do not apply.If you are using an OS version that is not English, you must translate directory names (such as “Documentsand Settings” or “Program Files”) to match the OS language you use.File TypeUser-created dataUser-created data (shared)Firebox® configuration filesFirebox log filesReport filesCertificatesWatchGuard® applicationsShared application librariesManagement Server dataCertificate Authority dataWebBlocker Server dataFuture product upgradeimagesLocationMy Documents\My WatchGuard(User created data includes files such as Firebox configuration files, license files,and certificates.
