FTP Accounts

Overview

FTP Manager allows you to create users to access defined directories of your web site via FTP.

FTP Accounts are often used to share files with other people on the Internet. If you have a document that is too large to send via email, or if you want to keep the most current version of the document in a central location, you might put it in an FTP location.
