The WebFTP interface enables you to access your account, search for files, upload, edit, and download files from anywhere without additional FTP software. To modify a directory, please double click on the directory name.
FileSearch
Enter a file name or a part of a file name. After starting the search, you will be shown the results.
Modify Home Directory / Modify Website Directory
Using this link you can change from your home directory to the directory in which your website is found (public_html).
Expanded View
Expanded View provides more information about the files displayed. You'll also see the access rights (permissions) as well as the file owner and file group. These details specify who has access to the specific file or directory.
Permissions/owner/group
Every file and every directory has a number of characteristics which specify who is allowed access. A distinction is made between 'owner access', 'group access' and 'public access'. When you create or upload a new file, you automatically become the owner of the file. In the 'Permissions' column, you can now define which rights you wish to have over the file and which rights others will have.
You can set the following rights:
- Read-only access to the file/directory
- Write access to the file/directory
- Run the file/open the directory
The following abbreviations apply to these types of permission:
- r - read-only access
- w - write access
- x - run the file/open the directory
You can set these rights differently for each user type (owner, group, general).
The "Permissions" column in WebFTP represents this allocation of rights:
d|rwx|rwx|rwx
- First group = Owner
- Second group = Group
- Third group = Public
FTP logs
Here you can see the log of the latest FTP connections to your account.
You also have the option of downloading the data in a text file. To do this, click on the 'Download as File' link.
If you need further FTP logs, please contact our support.
Note: To protect users' privacy, all IP addresses are anonymised.
File authorization
You need to set file permissions for static HTML pages to at least 604 using the chmod command. This authorizes the web server to read the file. Executable programs, such as Perl scripts, require at least 705.
You can change the permissions using your FTP program (for example, Filezilla) or using the konsoleH WebFTP. After logging in, go to Services → WebFTP.
