The standard for naming
FTP is usually ftp.yourcompany.com. If your domain name
is registered, your virtual anonymous FTP services are
in this standard format.
Anonymous and Non-Anonymous
FTP
Your Virtual Server supports
anonymous FTP (which allows users to access files via
FTP without entering a username and a password) and
non-anonymous FTP (which requires a username and password).
When anonymous FTP is configured, users simply enter
"anonymous" as their username and their e-mail
address as their password. In other words, with anonymous
FTP, you don't have to set up specific FTP accounts
in order for users to access files on your Virtual Server
via FTP.
Your Anonymous FTP Directory
Anonymous FTP is the
safest way to grant users access to the virtual FTP
service, because users are restricted to your home FTP
directory. When you restrict user access and permissions,
you limit potential harm that users can cause.
Your FTP directory is
your home directory, and, by default, it contains only
the pub sub-directory. The pub directory
contains the archive files available to anonymous FTP
customers. You should place files the customers need
to access in the pub directory. You can create
other directories as needed.
