Filezilla Site Manager |
|
Here I am using just an IP address this would be
provided to you in the setup details of your site. After your domain comes live
change this to ftp.domainname.com . This
is very important in future your site FTP address could be changed. Of course if
we change DNS you would try to logon to the wrong location.
Tick the normal radio button, and then enter your logon
and password. |

Filezilla Site Manager Advanced |
|
Advanced features allows you to mention the initial
remote directory or root directory.
This is very important as it tells the server to what
directory on the server you are trying to logon to.
Typically this is your domain-name minus the .com
.net .org .biz .info what ever your domain-name is just remove everything to the
right of the name. Failure to do this will mean you will not be able to logon
and see the files and folders in your site. |

The left pane shows the content of the folders on
your local machine to which you want to upload.
The bottom pane is the list of files you have

Ftp using a browser |
|
Open your browser type in
ftp://ftp.domain-name.com/domain
this is an example, you use your domain name. Also /domain means the same as
initial remote directory or root directory in any other ftp client. If your
domain is not live on our servers yet then the url would be.
ftp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx./domain the x
is a digit of the IP address provided to you and /domain again is the same as
above. |

FTP using a browser |
|
This is a no different than any other logon and password
dialog you would fill out on the web.
This is where you would use the logon and password
provided to you by one of our support agents in your original setup details when
we created your site. |

 |
|
|
|
FTP using a browser |
|
After you logon you should see all the files and
folders listed in your web space or web site.
If you do not see the files and folders listed in your site the cause is
typically failure to mention your initial remote directory or root directory
/domain.
To upload open windows explorer and select the files
copy and then paste them in the right pane of your web browser. |

FTP using a browser |

If you have tried everything above and you are certain
it is correct and the files and folders are not visible in the right pane, then
do this.
In IE go /tools/internet options/ then click on the
advanced tab.
scroll down and un-tick the box use passive mode for
FTP. This is possible due to policies set on the server.
