How do I create an FTP user to publish my website?

Each Website and E-mail hosting package offered by Inet7 includes a control panel.  From this control panel you can perform a variety of tasks including creating an FTP user so you can publish your website and upload files to the server.

You may access your Hosting Service Control Panel by:

  • Logging into http://manage.inet7.com
  • Click Services
  • Click on "Active" of any particular service
  • Click the control panel link located on the left side of this page


Once you are in the control panel, there are many features and a fantastic Help Menu at the top which includes access to Video Tutorials for commonly performed tasks.

To Add an FTP User:

  • Click "Websites & Domains"
  • Click "FTP Access".    You will notice there is already a single user setup automatically.
  • Click "Create Additional FTP Account"
  • Enter the FTP Account Name, The Home Directory (if you needed to specify a certain directory), A secure password, Select the Permissions you want them to have (Read/Write or both).  Click OK.

You are now ready to connect to your website server with FTP.
