  3. Enter the file path.
In a Linux-based system, provide the full path of the SCP or SFTP root directory. For example, /home/user1 is the root directory for SCP running on a Linux host logged in with user1; if the license is present in /home/user1/licenses/license1.xml, then enter the file path as /home/user1/licenses/license1.xml.
 
In a Windows-based system, enter the file path after the FTP root directory. For example, if a Windows FTP root folder is c:/users/user1/ftproot/ and the license is present in c:/users/user1/ftproot/licenses/license1.xml, then enter the file path as /licenses/license1.xml.
