Rotary District 9750 - Web Site Guide
Configure FTP to access Your Club Web Site       [Print This Page]


If you are using WS-FTP, then there is a page on the Rotarnet site with an example of its setup,
just click here to see that.

This is an example for setting up FTP access in CuteFTP,
for the fictitious "Rotary Club of Anytown" from District 9750.

Information provided by your web site host, say Rotarnet in this case, would include:
Host server:  rotarnet.com.au
User ID:  itsme2
Password:  oiam12
Directory:  rotarnet/users/9/97599
The configuration in CuteFTP Site Manager is then as follows:

Site Settings

and the further details from the Edit button are:

Site properties

If you enter the password in the configuration box, hitting the "Connect" button will connect and log in. If the PC is used by others, leave the password blank and when you hit "Connect" you will be asked to enter the password before connecting each time.
Once connected, your local files will be in the left panel and those on the host server in the right panel, and you can copy between them both ways (known as upload to the server and and download from it) by drag and drop or hittting the Upload or Download button, rename, delete etc, just like a file manager. Copying a directory copies all the files in it.

Note: For the above Club set up, if the short form home page is arranged, users can access the site by entering:
rotarnet.com.au/Anytown
into their browser, and the link there will take them to the entry page located at
rotarnet.com.au/users/9/97599
