Creating FTP Subaccounts

This section focuses on creation and adjustment of FTP subaccounts. The domain users are allowed to create, edit and delete FTP subaccounts. FTP subaccounts are available on each domain, and the maximum number of FTP subaccouns is not limited. The default value for the minimum number is 0, not unlimited. This limitation can be changed in the domain's limits.

To create a new FTP subaccount:

  1. On your Home page, click FTP Management in the Hosting group.
  2. On the FTP subaccounts tab, click Add New FTP Subaccount.
  3. Specify the FTP subaccount name in the appropriate field.
  4. Specify the Home directory by clicking and select the directory required. Alternatively, you can specify the path in the input field.
  5. Type the new password into the New password and Confirm password boxes.
  6. By default, the Hard disk quota is set to Unlimited. To set the required parameter, clear the Unlimited checkbox and type the amount of disk space in megabytes into the Hard disk quota box.
  7. If required, select the Read permission checkbox. The FTP subaccount users will be able to view the content of the home directory and download files from it.
  8. If required, select the Write permission checkbox. The FTP subaccount users will be able to create, view, rename and delete directories in the home directories.

    If you don't grant any permission, the connection to the FTP subaccount will be made, but the home directory will be not displayed for users.

  9. Click OK. A new FTP subaccount will be added.
