How do I add an additional FTP account using the Aplus.Net Control Panel?

Answer by: Andy Hickl, Aplus.Net Knowledge Base Support

Please note that additional FTP accounts are available for UNIX-based plans only. Here is how you can add an additional FTP account using the Aplus.Net Control Panel:

  1. Start by logging into the Aplus.Net Control Panel at http://cp.aplus.net using your Registration Number and Customer Password.
  2. Select Web Hosting from the top navigation bar.
  3. Next, select FTP Accounts and click on Manage FTP Accounts.
  4. Click on create additional for the particular main FTP username you wish to create an additional FTP account for.
  5. Enter a username into the FTP Username field.
  6. Enter a password into the Password field.
  7. Re-enter your password into the Confirm Password field.
  8. Specify the highest directory that you want to grant this user access to in the Home Directory field.
Important: Do not grant access to your main html folder as this will take the ownership from your main ftp account and may cause certain services not to work properly.
  1. Click Create to add a new FTP user. Click Cancel to escape.
