What
is FTP Access?
FTP is an acronym for File Transfer Protocol. There are a huge variety
of FTP programs you may use to transfer files from your computer to
the server. We recommend using CuteFTP
for it's ease of use.
Do
I get an anonymous FTP site?
Anonymous FTP sites are not available for our customers. We cannot
provide this type of setup for everyone. It would hinder the server
performance dramatically, and slow down speeds for all other users.
You will have FTP access to your space using your assigned login and
password.
How
do I put files in my account?
To transfer files from your PC to your account on the server, you
can use a program known as an FTP client. Windows 95 provides one
you can access by typing 'FTP' in an MS-DOS Command Prompt Window.
Here is an example on how to use it:
Connecting to the server...
C:\>FTP
www.speedhost.com
Logging
on...
Connected to www.speedhost.com.
220 ftp.speedhost.com FTP server (NcFTPd 2.3.1) ready.
User (www.speedhost.com:(none)): YOURLOGIN
