Basic FTP settings

You will require two main pieces of information to upload data to an FTP site:
The name of the FTP site and a directory on the site in which the files will be stored

once uploaded and
A valid user name and password allowing you access to this directory.

What to enter
The default port for providing SMTP connections is 25. Some
network administrators change the port number on their SMTP
servers to increase security and stop hacking attacks. If your
network administrator has advised a different port for connection,
please enter it here.
In this case you may also need to change the settings of your
firewall.
If you wish to learn more about this topic please see any of the
published articles on networking and TCP/IP available on the
Internet.
If a connection cannot be established, LogTag Analyzer will retry to
e-mail the file again after the number of minutes entered here. This
helps eliminate e-mail errors due to intermittent Internet
connection errors.
Enter the number of times LogTag Analyzer should try to e-mail the
file if previous attempts have not been successful.
LogTag Analyzer will keep the connection to the SMTP server
active, even if currently no files are being e-mailed. This avoids
having to exchange password and login information every time a
file is uploaded therefore providing faster uploads, especially if only
a slow Internet connection is available. After a certain amount of
inactivity the connection is dropped to save resources. Enter the
time after which you wish LogTag Analyzer to automatically
disconnect from the SMTP server.
If a tick is placed in the box next to "Log uploads" the message
exchange between the SMTP server and LogTag Analyzer is
recorded into a file. These files are automatically named
"YYYY_M_D_LogTag Analyzer_SMTP.log", you can specify a
location where the files are created, or click
location of your choice.
Tick this box if you wish connection errors to be logged. This is
recommended if you frequently experience upload errors and you
wish to discuss this issue with your network administrator.
