When you have a server, you can place files on them using an FTP connection. You will need FTP access data for this.
You can get FTP access using:
- WebFTP or a program for servicing an FTP server available in the Control Panel,
- FTP connections in the FTP client by logging in with the main account name and password,
- FTP connections in the FTP client by logging in with the name of the additional user and his password.
Creating an additional FTP server user allows you to have better control over the resources of the service. You can restrict the user’s access to the entire FTP server, to the selected folder or to the backup folder. Thanks to this configuration, the FTP user will not have access to sensitive data. This is a secure configuration for your server.
