How do I create an FTP user account for a specific directory within a domain?

A directory FTP account will create a username that takes a user into a specific sub directory of a domain name. The FTP user account will only have access to work within that sub directory and create new directories within. The FTP user will not be able to "back" out of the sub directory.

Login to your CLIENT HMS account.

Locate the plan you want to work with, select a domain from the "Select Domain" dropdown and click on the "FTP" icon under the "Select Control Panel Function" table.

Under the "Create Directory FTP Account" table type in the FTP username you would like in the "FTP Username" field.

Now type in a sub directory you would like created under the "Directory to Create" field. An example would be "friends_folder".

Click on the "Submit FTP User" button.

The FTP account you created will be listed under the "Active FTP Users" table and the directory that the FTP is locked to will be listed under the "Locked to Directory" column.
