Anonymous
FTP Domain accounts include an anonymous FTP server. When enabled, this server allows anonymous users to download (and optionally upload) files from/to a specific directory within your account. To activate anonymous FTP, create an /ftp directory
within your document root (/htdocs ) directory. This directory
will appear via anonymous FTP at ftp://ftp.yourname.com/ftp/ .
(It will also appear on the web at http://www.yourname.com/ftp/ ).Anonymous FTP users will be able to view and download files in the /ftp
directory, and in any of its subdirectories. They will not be able to view
files outside of the /ftp directory. By default, anonymous FTP users can not upload files (their access is read-only). To allow write-access to the anonymous FTP directory, use your FTP client or Webby to chmod a subdirectory within /ftp as drwxrwxrwx
(0777 ).Use anonymous FTP with caution; you are responsible for all content on your site. By allowing write-access to your /ftp directory, you
will be allowing third-parties to upload content which might cause your
site to violate our policies or which might cause your site to exceed your
disk space allotment, resulting in charges to your account. A better solution
is to create one or more additional FTP accounts
and selectively distribute the password(s). |
