How do I setup FTP for my server?



Solution:

Ensim and cPanel dedicated server clients can configure the FTP service for their server directly through the Administrator Control Panel(Ensim) or Webhost Manager(cPanel). For Ensim servers, click on "FTP" from the left menu on the home page of your control panel. For cPanel users, click on "Service Configuration Setup" from the main screen and then "FTP Configuration". Plusmail servers do not have a main Administrative control panel but can enable FTP for each domain on their server by adding an FTP user for that domain.

There are a number of free FTP programs that you or your clients can download from the web to use to upload files to the domain. CuteFTP, WS_FTP and WinFTP are a few examples of popular programs. Our Support Pages at http://olm.net/support contain online tutorials for some of these programs for your convenience.
