FTP: Settings and Connections¶
General FTP settings¶
You can connect via FTP to your web hosting account with as little as three pieces of info:
- Server name — often your domain name will suffice.
- User name — your cPanel username can double as an FTPS\SFTP username
- Password — your cPanel password
Host | example.com |
---|---|
User | username@example.com |
Password | Your password |
Limitations¶
- IP addresses are limited to 8 open FTP connections at a time. It is not uncommon for an FTP application to open at least 4 or more connections.
