Add an FTP-user

An FTP-user is used when you need to upload or download files to the server through iPanel. The user can access only the directory that you have specified when creating the user account.

To create an FTP-user:

1. Go to FTP-users → Add an FTP user.
2. Enter the Name that is used to gain FTP access.
3. Set and confirm the Password to access the FTP-server. Use upper and lower-case letters, digits, special characters (such as @, ?, %) for better protection of your password.
4. Enter the Home directory of the FTP-user relative to the owner's home directory. E.g. if the owner's home directory is "/var/www/web_node/data", and the FTP-user is "/ftp", the FTP-user will have access to the directory "/var/www/web_node/data/ftp".
5. Click Create.
