Adding an FTP account
An FTP account creates a folder on the public_html
level of your site that allows external users that know the password
to upload and download files from that location. Change your password
if you think that your account is being used incorrectly.
Note: Please be aware that all users with the
correct password will be able to add, edit, and delete files from
the directory that you specify for the FTP account, and any directories
within the stated directory.
To add an FTP account:
-
Click on the Ftp Manager button on the home
page.
-
Click on the FTP Accounts link.
-
Click on the Add Account link.
-
Enter the name of the FTP account in the Login
field and the password for the account in the Password
field.
-
Enter the path to the directory to which this FTP account has
access.
Warning: If you enter the top-level of the
web site by entering a slash (/), all users with
the correct password will be able to add, edit, and delete all
files on your site. It is advisable to limit an FTP account to
a smaller section of your web site.
-
Click on the Create button.
