A few BlueFTP questions here . . . hope they're not TOO obvious:
1) I went into BlueFTP today, created a new folder on the R-hand side (that is, in the remote server) and put some files from my PC's hard drive into it. I want to allow someone else to access and download the files in that folder ONLY. How do I do it?
Every time I try typing into my browser the URL that I think will get me to that particular folder, I get the error message, "Windows cannot access this folder. Make sure you have typed the file name correctly and that you have permission to access the folder." I don't even get a dialog box asking for a username and password. My root domain is jhwm.net.
I see in cPanel that I can create FTP accounts, or grant 'anonymous' access to my FTP server. I just don't fully understand how to use these functions, and the BlueFTP tutorial video doesn't say anything about it.
2) In general, when is it best to use BlueFTP to upload files and when is it best to simply upload them via File Manager?
thanks,
