If you have selected to update the flat files into your database manually, you can schedule this at a time 
that best suits your network. See

settings.

To schedule a flat file import to your database:

1

Click Add to navigate to the folder where your flat files are located. Click Remove if you want to delete 
a location. Flat files are stored in the following folder by default: 

C:\Program Files\SurfControl\Web Filter\tmp

Click Open Database. You have two choices:

•

Choose a SurfControl Collector from the drop-down list box then click Connect to SQL Server to 
select a SQL Server Database resident on the Collector.

•

Click Connect to SQL Server if using a database on the local computer.

Select Use Trusted connection for Windows Authentication (the default option), or deselect this 
option and use a valid SQL Login ID and Password.

Do not schedule flat file updates from multiple collectors to take place at the same 

time. This can corrupt your database.
