fill in all the data necessary (Label, host address - hostname, username, password) and you choose the login method: Normal. Next you go to Services -> My services -> Product name -> View Details -> You look for the data needed Now you add your server to Site Manager, to do this you need data from Client Area so you log on your account: You download the latest CuteFTP version from: How stupid is that?ĥ.I thought exporting sites would be useful to facilitate the transfer of settings between separate installations.But because the passwords are '*'ed out, one has to remember and enter them again, which makes the transport process much more cumbersome.Īfter trying several clients (this, FileZilla, FlashFXP, SmartFTP) I switched to SmartFTP for everyday transfers, although I still keep CuteFTP around for its more advanced features (like HTTP(S),SFTP transfers).Portal Home > Knowledgebase > How-to > Hosting > FTP > Download files from server via FTP - CuteFTPĭownload files from server via FTP - CuteFTP Still you cannot browse, since the 2nd task in the queue will start up and eat your connection.
