The simplest way to grant a third-party access to the files in a specific directory is to set up an FTP account and to set content access restrictions concerning your web space. In case you use the services of a web developer, for instance, they will not get access to any other files or any private data within your account. You can also use multiple FTP accounts to manage different Internet sites built with a desktop web design application like Dreamweaver or FrontPage – each site can be launched online and subsequently edited using an FTP account with access to its very own domain folder on the server. All these things will be possible on the condition that you’re able to set up and administer your FTP accounts without any hassle.

FTP Manager in Web Hosting

When you you open a web hosting account with our company, you’ll get access to the rather powerful FTP Manager tool, which is included in our custom-developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel. The tool offers a number of different options, besides the possibility to set up or remove FTP accounts. You will be able to view the access path associated with each account and by clicking on it, you can alter it so that the account in question will access a different folder. Downloadable auto-configuration files are available too, so you will not have to configure anything manually – you can just download the specific file for Core FTP, CyberDuck or FileZilla and run it on your personal computer. To make the administration itself easier, the FTP Manager will allow you to view all the accounts that you’ve created in alphabetical order, based on either the access path or the username.

FTP Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server accounts are administered via the simple-to-navigate, in-house built Hepsia Control Panel. One of its sections, the FTP Manager, is dedicated to managing your FTP accounts and all of the things associated with them, so you can administer all the accounts quickly and easily. It will take one single click of the mouse to create a new account, to delete an existing one or simply to change its password. You can also see the complete list of your accounts in this Control Panel section and, for the sake of convenience, you can arrange them in alphabetical order – descending or ascending, either by their access path or by username. Changing the path for a certain account is also amazingly easy – you only have to click on it and pick the new folder in the pop-up window that will appear, so you will not need to create a whole new FTP account in case you simply need to specify what website files an existing account can access. You can also make use of auto-configuration files for widespread FTP client applications like FileZilla and Core FTP.
