How do I use sftp?

[2 Grey Star Level]

I would like to set my server up to use sftp instead of just ftp. Where can I find instructions on doing this?

Answer #1

Hello,

By default, our services already have sFTP enabled. If your ftp client supports sFTP, you can enter the account login credentials for the primary ftp account and select sftp as the connection type. Please keep in mind that addon/extra ftp accounts will not work when attempting to use sFTP.

For more information on how to find the login credentials for your account, please see the Connection Details section of the article linked below:
