Abstract

Data connections from a remote login session are identified and an identification query may be transmitted by the remote login session to endpoints (e.g., servers) of the data connections. In response to the identification query, identification information may be received from the endpoints. Furthermore, the identification information may be compared with a local identification of a local server that hosts the remote login session. A file created by the remote login session may be stored at an endpoint over a data connection where the local identification matches a portion or all of the identification information of the endpoint of the data connection.
