Let us now quickly get to the business side of things and start with some configuration.
Click OK and Windows will do the rest.
If you are using an older version of Windows you might need to insert your Windows disc.
Step 4:In the left pane, Right Click onSitesand chooseNew FTP Site.
Choose a name for your site and the directory that will serve as the root FTP folder.
Step 5:ClickNextand you could now configure the IP Address and SSL configs according to your needs.
If you have a static IP, put it in here, otherwise leave it as it is.
Again if you want to enable SSL, it can be done from here on in.
You should now be able to connect to your newly created FTP site using your favorite FTP client.
To connect, users would need to point their FTP clients to a hostname or IP address.
By default, the Windows account credentials for any given user should do the job.
Do you use FTP?
If so, what are your favorite applications to get the most out of FTP?
