FTP Subaccounts (available only for Unix based accounts)swift xpress mac torrent

The simplest way to authorize your friends or colleagues to work with particular directories of your account is to create FTP subaccounts. An FTP subaccount is a combination of a username and a password, which gives full FTP permissions to a single directory, without giving access to the root directory, other directories or the control panel. No dedicated IP is required for FTP subaccounts. Although each FTP subaccount has a login which is different from yours, both have the same ID in the system.swift xpress mac torrent

To create a new FTP subaccount:swift xpress mac torrent

• Select FTP User link in FTP/User Account menu.
• At the bottom of the page that shows, find FTP sub-accounts and click the Add icon.
• On the next page, enter the FTP login and password that will be used by this other user, and the directory this user will be restricted to.
  The directory must be relative to your home directory. If you leave the directory field empty, FTP sub-users will have access to your whole home directory.

FTP subaccount traffic is a part of the Total/Summary traffic, but you can always see how much FTP traffic has been run up by an individual FTP subaccount by going to the FTP Manager page and clicking the Edit icon next to the subaccount login.swift xpress mac torrent

Virtual FTPswift xpress mac torrent

Virtual FTP provides ampler possibilities than FTP sub-accounts. You can give your authorized Virtual FTP users access to more than one directory and specify a different set of permissions for each directory. Virtual FTP users log right into your root, but can enter only those directories you allow them to enter.swift xpress mac torrent

To provide Virtual FTP Access to a certain domain, do the following:swift xpress mac torrent

1. Skip this step if you are already using a dedicated IP.
   Select FTP in FTP/User Account menu.
2. If you have several domains, choose the one to enable virtual FTP for.
3. On the page that appears, switch to dedicated IP. Click here to read about the difference between shared and dedicated IPs.

4. Click the confirmation link to agree with the charges.
5. On the next page, add server name for the new virtual host. This name will appear in the welcome message when guest users connect to your server with FTP clients. Also, enter the e-mail address by which FTP users can reach you with questions or comments.
6. Click the Edit icon for FTP for this domain.
7. Click the Add icon for Virtual FTP Users and create a new Virtual FTP User:

8. Click the Add icon for Virtual FTP Directories and enter the name for the new Virtual FTP Directory:

   swift xpress mac torrent End it with a slash, e.g.: Dir1/. The location must be specified relative to root. To create a virtual FTP directory inside a different directory, include the path, for example UserDirs/Dir1/.
   On the same page, specify permissions to this directory:
   Read: check to allow file downloads from this directory.
   Write: check to allow file uploads to this directory. List: check to allow viewing / browsing the contents of the directory. It is usually used jointly with Read.
   Grant Permissions to all users: check to grant these permissions to all your Virtual FTP users. If you leave this property unchecked, you will have to define permissions on this directory individually for each Virtual FTP User.

9. Click the Edit icon next to the directory you have just created. If you haven't granted the same permissions to all your Virtual FTP Users, you can specify permissions for each of them individually:

   swift xpress mac torrent If you have chosen to grant the same permissions to all users, you can skip this step.

Anonymous FTPswift xpress mac torrent

This feature allows you to give public FTP access to a dedicated directory in your account. A special directory is created in your root, and its content can be viewed and downloaded, but not uploaded.swift xpress mac torrent

Anonymous FTP becomes available only after you create a Virtual FTP server. To configure Anonymous FTP, do the following:swift xpress mac torrent

1. Skip this step if you are already using a dedicated IP.
   Select FTP in FTP/User Account menu.
2. If you have several domains, choose the one to enable virtual FTP for. On the page that appears, switch to dedicated IP. Click here to read about the difference between shared and dedicated IPs.
3. Skip this step if you have already enabled Virtual FTP.
   Select FTP in FTP/User Account menu. Enable FTP for this domain:

   swift xpress mac torrent and agree with the charges.

4. On your control panel home page, select FTP in FTP/User Account menu. Enable Anonymous FTP for this domain:

Anonymous FTP Upload Facilitiesswift xpress mac torrent

If you want to allow anonymous FTP users to upload files, enable Anonymous FTP Upload Facilities by doing the following:swift xpress mac torrent

1. Enable Anonymous FTP.
2. At the bottom of the FTP vhost page you will find a new option to enable anonymous FTP upload facilities:

   swift xpress mac torrent Turn it on. This will create a dedicated directory inside the Anonymous FTP directory.
   * The Uploads (Windows based plans) / Incoming (Unix based plans) directory have only 'upload' permissions, so it will allow neither downloading nor viewing its content.
