The WS_FTP Server Manager

The WS_FTP Server Manager lets you manage your FTP server configuration, and any FTP sites you create.

The WS_FTP Server Manager presents a two panel window. In the left panel, click the plus sign (+) next to an item to display sub-items. When you click an item, its properties appear in the right panel.

You can have multiple FTP hosts (each functioning as a separate FTP server) on the WS_FTP Server. In the left panel, under Local System, there is an entry for each FTP host that you create. Under each FTP host, there are user accounts, groups of users, and folders (FTP directories) for that host.

You can manage all FTP server functions from the WS_FTP Server Manager.

Remote Management

Before you can remotely manage WS_FTP Server, you need to install WS_FTP Server Manager on the computer that will be used to do the remote management (Any Windows NT, 95, 98, 2000, ME, or XP computer that the server is not running on.)

Installing from the WS_FTP Server CD-Rom:

Run the install program on that computer and select the option to install the Remote Server Manager.

Installing from the e-commerce download:

After installing WS_FTP Server on the host computer, transfer the mgr_inst.exe file to the computer you want to use to remotely manage your server (found in the WS_FTP Manager Install folder in the directory you installed WS_FTP Server). Double-click the file and follow the directions to install the WS_FTP Server Manager.
