FTPS connections (CS5.5)

FTPS (FTP over SSL) provides both encryption and authentication support as compared to SFTP that offers only encryption support.

When using FTPS for data transfer, you can choose to encrypt your credentials, and also the data being transmitted to the server. In addition, you

can choose to authenticate the server's credentials and connections. The credentials of a server are validated against the current set of trusted CA

server certificates in the Dreamweaver database. Certificate Authorities (CAs), which include companies like VeriSign, Thawte, and so on, issue

digitally signed server certificates

This procedure describes options specific to FTPS. For information on regular FTP options, see the previous section.

1. Select Site > Manage Sites.

2. Click New to set up a new site, or select an existing Dreamweaver site and click Edit.

3. In the Site Setup dialog box, select the Servers category and do one of the following:

Click the “+” (Add New Server) button to add a new server.

Select an existing server and click the Edit Existing Server button.

4. In Server Name, specify a name for the new server.

5. In Connect Using, select one of the following based on your requirement.

The server terminates the connection if the security request is not received.

If the client does not request security, the server can choose to proceed with an

insecure transaction, or refuse/limit the connection.

6. In Authentication, choose one of the following options:

The server’s credentials, signed or self-signed, are displayed. If you accept the server’s credentials, the certificate is

added to a certificate store, trustedSites.db, in Dreamweaver. When you connect to the same server the next time,

Dreamweaver directly connects to the server.

Note: If the credentials of a self-signed certificate have changed on the server, you are prompted to accept the new

credentials.

The presented certificate is validated with the current set of trusted CA server certificates in the Dreamweaver

database. The list of trusted servers is stored in the cacerts.pem file.

Note: An error message is displayed if you select Trusted Server, and connect to a server with a self-signed certificate.

7. Expand the More Options section to set more options.

Select this option if you want to encrypt only the commands that are being transmitted.

Use this option when the data being transmitted is already encrypted, or does not contain sensitive information.

Select this option if you want to encrypt only your user name and password.

8. Click Save to close the Basic screen. Then in the Servers category, specify whether the server you added or edited is a

remote server, a testing server, or both.
