Anonymous FTP Setup

Setting up Your Own "404: File Not Found" Page

	Only the incoming directory can be written to anonymously
	Subdirectories are not creatable
	The incoming directory is not readable by people dropping files there

You are responsible for any "pirated" software uploaded by the anonymous users. The anonymous FTP sites will be periodically monitored for any abuses. You can ignore the other directories.

To access the anonymous FTP site via the web, use the following address:

ftp://yourdomain.com/pub/

Your HTML to download a file called mirc511s.exe from a webpage would look like this:
<A HREF="ftp://yourdomain.com/pub/mirc511s.exe">Download Mirc Now</A>

You should tell your visitors that they may need to right-click on the link if they are PC users, or if they use a Macintosh, they need to hold down the mouse button on the link, then select the appropriate option from the Pop-up menu.

Please note, it's possible during peak hours to receive a "too many anonymous users error". We must restrict the number of simultaneous anonymous users to keep the webserver and normal FTP performance within normal limits. If you receive this error often you may want to put your downloadable files in your main web directory and link to them with an http call:

Example:
http://yourdomain.com/files.zip

This assumes the zip files are in the main web directory.

Note - if your customer experiences slow download performance, it's most likely a problem on the Internet. We maintain a large margin of available bandwidth so bottlenecks never occur within our network.
