Accessing the WS_FTP Server Manager

Ipswitch WS_FTP Server Manager is the web-based program used to manage the server and any hosts created on it. When you install the server, the server manager is also installed.

To access WS_FTP Server Manager:

  1. Using one of the methods below, open the WS_FTP Server Manager.
    • Double click the WS_FTP Server Manager icon on the desktop.
    • On a computer that has Internet or network access to the server, open a web browser and enter http://yourhostname.domainname.com/WSFTPSVR/, replacing yourhostname.domainname.com with the host name you specified during installation.

    The Ipswitch Web Admin login page appears.

  2. In Username, enter the username of a system or host administrator. If you want to use a system or host administrator on a host other than the default host, enter the username, host separator and host name, such as username@hostname.
  3. In Password, enter the password for the user you entered.
  4. Click Log In.
