Required Server Information
You will need specific information about a remote server to connect to it, such as host
name and user access requirements. If you do not have this information, you need to
get it from the owner of that server, whether it is your IT group, an ISP , or another
provider.
Connecting to an FTP Server
The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is the standard for transferring files between nodes on
the Internet. The Allaire FTP & RDS feature provides an interface for connecting to an
FTP server. When the connection has been established, you can access files on remote
servers and maintain Web sites located anywhere on the Internet.
FTP server connection requirements vary greatly. These instructions work in the
majority of cases, but you might have to try variations on the settings.
To connect to an FTP server:
1. Open the drive list at the top of the Files tab and select Allaire FTP & RDS.
You can also access this feature from Windows Explorer.
2. Right-click Allaire FTP & RDS and select Add FTP Server to open the Configure FTP
Server dialog box.
