The Unknown host key window appears any time you're connecting to an unknown server to help ensure you're really connecting to the server you want. When establishing a connection, if you're connecting to a secure server, a window similar to the following example is shown. If you did not have FileZilla save your password, a server password prompt appears before FileZilla attempts to connect. To connect to the saved server, click the down arrow next to the Site Manager icon on the toolbar and select your server's name. However, keeping a record of the information in case it's lost or needed for other computers is still a good idea. Connecting to the serverĪfter the site is added to FileZilla, it remains saved and doesn't need to be entered again. It can save you a lot of time if you specify these directories now instead of changing them manually each time you connect to the server.Īfter entering all the settings in the Site Manager, click the OK button. If you're unsure or the port is not mentioned, leave it blank.Ĭlicking the Advanced tab while in Site Manager lets you specify the local and remote directories. Next, select a protocol ( FTP, SFTP, Storj), and if the server is not using one of the default ports (20, 21, 22, or 115), enter the unique port. If you're given a full address like "SFTP://192.168.1.1," leave out the protocol information (e.g., SFTP://). In our example, we named our site "Example site." Next, enter the host address, which could be a hostname (e.g., ) or an IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.1). In the Site Manager, click the New site button and give the server a name.
To enter and save the server address information, click File and select Site Manager to open the Site Manager window, or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+ S. You can obtain the server address from your web host or through a web client, such as cPanel. Adding server informationĪfter FileZilla is installed and launched, enter the server address. The FTP server download is for users wanting to run an FTP server.Īlso, if you're using FileZilla, many of the steps suggested on this page should be similar to other GUI (graphical user interface) FTP clients. When downloading from FileZilla, choose the FTP client and not the FTP server.
