As we all know, Hostgator hosting is using cpanel X control panel. And as i know, this is the best control panel around. And most recommended for php/linux hosting plan. Glad that host gator is offering this control panel. From the cpanel, you can setup your ftp account. Although after you sign up hostgator, you already given a primary ftp login to your account.
If you are new to FTP, this is the File Transfer Protocol. And you will be using FTP to upload your files to hostgator server. Let login to cpanel and take a closer overview of the ftp features provided.
- FTP Accounts
With the FTP account utility you can control FTP accounts for your users or if your account has sub-domain support you can add FTP accounts for your sub-domain(s) - Setup Anonymous FTP Access
Here you can change how anonymous FTP users should be treated and change the anonymous upload policy as well. - Anonymous FTP Message
You can edit the anonymous FTP welcome message that users will see when they login to your FTP site. - FTP Session Control
This utility allows you to disconnect users or time out FTP sessions.
OK, ftp account management and also anonymous ftp account is provided. I will write more details on this in later posting. And what cought my attention now is the “FTP session control”… actually i can use this tools to view currently active connection to my server. Information displayed will include session and login time. And i can disconnect them accordingly.
