Changing FTP Settings for a Share Point
You can use Workgroup Manager to set whether a share point is available via FTP and
to change settings such as whether guest access is allowed and the share point name
that FTP clients see.
To change the settings of an FTP share point:
1 Open Workgroup Manager and click Sharing.
2 Click Share Points and select the share point.
3 Click Protocols and choose FTP Settings from the pop-up menu.
4 To make the share point available to FTP clients, select “Share this item using FTP.”
5 Select “Allow FTP guest access” to allow anonymous FTP users to open this item.
For greater security, don’t select this item.
6 To change the name clients see when they browse for and connect to the share point
using FTP, type a new name in the “Custom FTP name” field.
Changing the custom FTP name doesn’t affect the name of the share point itself, only
the name that FTP clients use.
