How To FTP |
| |
For files that are
too large for emailing, we recommend sending them to us using File Transfer
Protocol (FTP). To use FTP, you'll need FTP software. For Macintosh
users, an FTP program known as Fetch should be used. You can download
a copy ($25.00) from their website at www.fetchsoftworks.com.
PC users can use ACE FTP, a free FTP client that can be downloaded here.
Once you have downloaded and installed your FTP software, you are ready
to begin sending files. |
Instructions for Mac Users using
Fetch:
Once you open Fetch, a New
Connection window will open. This window will contain three blank fields:
Host, User ID and Password. To send files to Fort Nassau Graphics,
in the Host field, type in the Fort Nassau Server Address: ftp://ftp.fortnassaugraphics.com
In the User ID field, type: anonymous
Leave the Password field blank and click the OK
button. A window displaying Fort Nassau's FTP's site will open. Double click on the incoming folder. This is where your files should be placed. Click
on the Remote menu and select Put Folders and Files.
|
 |
|
Another window will open displaying two panes.
The top pane displays folders and files on your local computer. Select
a file or folder and click the Add button and your selection
will be placed into the lower pane. Click Done and your files
will begin to upload.

FTP Instructions for PC Users:
Although these instructions demonstrate using Ace FTP, the
procedure is similar to other popular PC FTP programs such as WS FTP and others. After opening Ace FTP, click
on the Connect button (Ctrl+W). A new window will open for your
FTP connections. Click on the Connections menu and select New Site
Profile. The New Site Profile Wizard will open with 4 blank fields.
In the top field, you can give your connection a name. In the Server
field, type in the Fort Nassau Server Address: ftp://ftp.fortnassaugraphics.com
In the User ID field, type: anonymous
Leave the Password field blank and click the next button.
|
 |
| The next panel lets you browse
for a folder from which you will upload files. By clicking on the folder
icon, you can navigate to the folder on your computer from which files
will be sent to Fort Nassau's FTP site. Once you've selected a folder,
click OK and then click Finish. Now your connection has
been made. |
 |
|
To upload files, double click on the incoming folder in the right pane then select a file or folder on your computer in the left pane and click the
blue button pointing towards the left. This will upload your files to the Fort Nassau FTP site (Right Pane).
