320 Previewing and Publishing
• The Account name. This can be any name of your choice. You'll
use it to identify this account in WebPlus (in case you have more
than one).
• The FTP address of your web host will be a specific URL
starting with "ftp://" as supplied by your service provider.
• Port number: Unless directed by your provider, you can leave
this set at "21."
• Leave the Folder box blank unless directed by your provider, or
if you want to publish to a specific subfolder of your root
directory.
• You'll also need a Username and Password as pre-assigned by
the provider. Most likely these will correspond to email login
settings. Be sure to enter the password exactly as given to you,
using correct upper- and lower-case spelling, or the host server
may not recognize it.
• Check Save password to record the password on your computer,
if you don't want to re-enter it with each upload.
• Passive mode: Leave checked unless you have FTP connection
problems (check with your ISP). ISPs can operate passive or
active FTP modes of operation.
• Web site URL: Set your site's URL. This allows you to view the
web site from a dialog after FTP upload.
• In the Advanced box, you can optionally enable Secure FTP by
uploading using one of two encryption protocols—TLS 1.0 and
SSL 3.0. Check Encrypt connection, then choose the Protocol.
You'll need to confirm with your ISP whether encryption (and
which protocol) is supported, implied or otherwise. The SSL
Implied option makes the ISP's FTP server encrypt on initial
contact to default port 990 or a custom port (edit Port number).
