FileZilla Configure FTP Service how to use

Using tutorials

The 1th step in the "filezilla_server-0_9_24.exe" installation file on the two down to the left button, to perform the installation program, and then click the (i agree) button, start the installation.

Step 2nd Then he will ask you what components to install, how to install: The default standard, click (next) to continue the next step.

Step 3rd Then he will ask you to install the FTP server program to which folder, it is highly recommended to install to a non-default path to increase the safety factor. Please click the (next) button to continue to the next step.

The 4th step is to ask us if we want the FTP server to start automatically when the computer is powered on, please click "Install as Service, started Withwindows (default)", and then click (next). The FTP server will automatically be installed into the system service, each boot will automatically restart the background and perform the function of the FTP server. Set management port "14147", it is highly recommended to modify this port, for example: Change to 38121 port. (Note that you do not conflict with common services such as 80 ports)

5th step We can then set whether to automatically start the "filezilla Server interface" Server Management interface at power-on, if you often need to manage your FTP server, you can choose "Start if user logs on, apply only to Curr ENT user ". Generally choose the bottom of the "Start manually", and then manually open it.

After the 6th step is installed, click the (close) button to end the installer.

The 7th step installs the software, when starts the FileZilla server, will appear a "connect to server" window, we may enter this server password:"service password in the"administrator filezilla field, Enter the admin port number (how much are the admin ports, please refer to the specific numbers that were filled in before the installation process). Then check "always connect to this server" and press (ok) again. It is recommended that the "Always connect to this server" option be selected, which means that each time the management console is started, it is the FileZilla service that manages the local computer.

Note: It is important to modify the port and password, which is the key to ensure FileZilla security, you must modify the port, you must set the password! The password proposal is complex enough! can be modified in the admin interface.

The 8th step, as shown in the FileZilla server management interface, we can see the upper half of the window on the current operation of the FTP server, if there are "logged on" or "server online" words, said has been successfully online. We can switch on or off the FTP station manually by clicking the Lightning Flash icon at the top of the line.

Standard FTP User Configuration:

Set up the process: open a new account → set password → selected folder → set complete.

The 1th step is the set of user groups (group settings). Click on the Fifth button on the main screen or enter by the "Edit"-"Groups" menu.

Group settings are designed to facilitate user classification management, users of the same permissions to the same group, so you do not have to repeatedly set each user's permissions and other parameters, simplifying configuration and management work. Click the "ADD" button on the right to create a new group.

When group creation is complete, point "Shared folders" enters the directory permissions settings page. Click the "Add" button in the middle area to add a table of contents.

The first directory that is added by default is the home directory that is visible to users of the group after they log on, with a bold "H" identity in front of the home directory. To the right of the directory list is the Operation permission setting for the directory, which is the file permission setting, and the following is the directory permissions setting. If you want to change the home directory, just select the one in the list that you want to set as the primary directory, and then click the Set as Home dir button.

Set the home directory, and then click the "Add" button to set the rest of the directory in order to be OK. However, it should be noted here that if you just add another directory, then you can connect with the client and you will find that the directory is not visible except for the home directory and its subdirectories. What the hell is going on? Here is a concept-a virtual path. The so-called virtual path is the directory structure that is seen on the client. Because a user can only have one home directory, other directories will not be visible to the client if it is not mapped to a virtual directory. So it is only possible to see a subdirectory of the home directory other than the home directory, so that it can be seen on the client.

For example, the home directory is d:downloads, if not the virtual path settings, then the client login can only see the contents of the main directory, there is a e:ftproot directory of things below see. How do I set the virtual path? Right click on the "E:ftproot" directory in the list, select "Edit Aliases" edit alias in the pop-up menu, and now to the E:ftproot directory as the FTPRoot directory under the client's home directory, then in the pop-up window, enter the "D :D ownloadsftproot "and click" OK "button to determine. Note the spelling rule that the previous part of the path must be the absolute path to the home directory. After this setting, you can see a "ftproot" directory on the client, which is actually the E:ftproot directory.

The "Speed Limits" and "IP filter" in group settings are the same as the speed limits and IP filter settings in the global settings, please refer to the previous section. But this is only effective for users of this group. The global setting is in effect for all users. After setting up, click the "OK" button to return to the main screen.

Permission Description:

File:

Files→read: Can download the file eucalyptus.

Files→write: can upload files Eucalyptus.

Files→delete: Can delete the file eucalyptus.

Files→append: That is, download the file to the local copy and open the edit, and then upload it to the server on shutdown. (question: Do not know whether to perform edits on the server side.) Directory

Directories→creat: You can add a sub folder.

Directories→delete: You can delete a child folder.

Directories→list: You can list the files in the folder.

Directories→+subdirs: Lists subfolders in the folder.

Note: The permissions on files and directories that are set in the FileZilla server depend on the permissions set by the system account in the Windows operating system for files and directories.

The 2nd step is to set up the user (users). Click on the Fourth button on the main screen or enter by the "Edit"-"Users" menu.

Click the "ADD" button on the right to create the user and enter the username test.

Select the Password box at the front of the selection and enter the password 123456.

Then select the group that the user belongs to from the group Membership column, so that the user inherits all the properties/permissions for the group and does not have to set the parameters separately by one by one. This is also the convenience of setting up a group, in the user more time use group to classify will make the management work more convenient and efficient. Of course, you can also set up a user who does not belong to any group, so that you have to customize the user's permissions individually. For a small number of special users, it can be set in this way.

Return to the user admin interface, click the Set folder directory, click Add Add Directory.

Add complete, and then the right to select the test user's permissions on the directory, and then click on the left of the OK button, configuration completed.

You can now use the client to test the login.
