How do I FTP?
|
There are a few pieces of information your will need to connect any FTP agent (client software) to the remote web folder (your web site) |
1. Hostname |
1. Where can you find the HOSTNAME?
|
The HOSTNAME is located under the FTP account settings in the control panel. Select the FTP Manager option (image view from Xpressia interface) |
|
Once selected, you will see a screen with this type of information. Your HOSTNAME is listed here. you would enter this into your FTP agent/software exactly as seen here. |
Once your name server information propagates through the Internet you will also be able to use: ftp.yourdomain.com. |
2. What is the directory and where do I enter this information?
|
The directory connected to your web folder is considered your "ROOT" directory. This is normally indicated by using the "/" (forward slash symbol). Our servers know by your user name which directory you can have access to. |
One thing our system does is offer you the ability to host multiple domain namesunder your single login account. When connecting to your account, you can select the root of the accounts (as shown above) and you will see all of your domains in separate folders in the remote view. |
3, 4. Where do I get the USERNAME and PASSWORD?
|
The same screen from the login listed in STEP 1, will get you your username and password information. You can also setup new ftp users in this area, provided your plan has the option. |
