FTP access with FileZilla (Mac, Windows, or Linux)
FileZilla is a free open source FTP, SFTP and FTPS client for Windows, Mac and Linux. It provides a split-view of local and remote filesystems in a single window.
FileZilla is compatible with Memstore™'s FTP and SFTP interfaces. This guide will explain how to use FileZilla's FTP capabilities.
- Open FileZilla and press CTRL-S on Windows/Linux or CMD-S on a Mac to open the FileZilla Connection Manager.
- Click New Site.
- Give the bookmark a name.
- Use ftp.storage.memset.com as the server name.
- Make sure the protocol is set to FTP.
- Use your Memstore™ product username followed by a full-stop and the container username (or if you're using the main admin account, use admin). For example, I am connecting as the admin account msdrakeab1.admin.
- If you're not connecting to a particular container and are logging in as the admin user, leave the Default Remote Directory field (under the Advanced tab) alone - otherwise you can specify the container in the path field prefixed by a forward slash (/). For example: /myblog.
- Leave all other settings as is.
Transferring files
On the left-hand pane, you'll find your local files. The right-hand pane shows the contents of your Memstore™ containers. Just drag files and directories between the two panes to begin transfer.
