The easiest way to grant a third-party access to the files in a specific directory is to create an FTP account and to specify website content access limits with regard to your web hosting space. In case you use the services of a web developer, for example, they will not get access to any other files or any sensitive details in your account. You can also create multiple FTP accounts to manage a number of sites built with a desktop web design application such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver – each Internet site can be published online and then modified using an FTP account that has access to its very own website folder on the server. All these things will be possible as long as you’re able to set up and manage your FTP accounts without any effort.

FTP Manager in Cloud Web Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, which is included with all our Linux cloud web hosting packages, offers a multi-function FTP Manager tool that will grant you complete control over all FTP accounts in your hosting account. Setting up or removing an account takes literally only a single click of the mouse and all the accounts that you’ve got at any given moment will be displayed alphabetically, so you can effortlessly find the one that you need. You will also be able to see what folder a given account can access and by clicking on it, you can change it. If you want to access your web space using an FTP program such as FileZilla or Core FTP, you can download an auto-config file for any of the FTP accounts and install it on your PC – the account in question will be set up without you needing to do anything manually on your end. What’s more, you can view the full list of all the domains or sub-domains which you can use.

FTP Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server configurations are managed via the simple-to-use, tailor-made Hepsia hosting Control Panel. One of its sections – the FTP Manager, is dedicated to administering your FTP accounts and everything associated with them, so you will be able to administer all the accounts swiftly and easily. It’ll take a click to create a new FTP account, to remove an active one or simply to change its password. You can also see the full list of your FTP accounts in this Control Panel section and, for the sake of convenience, you can sort them in alphabetical order – ascending or descending, either by username or by their access path. Changing the path for a particular account is also amazingly easy – you will simply have to click on it and select the new directory in the pop-up window that will show up, so you won’t have to create a new FTP account in case you simply need to define what files an existing account can access. You can also take advantage of auto-configuration files for famous FTP software applications like FileZilla and Core FTP.
