Anonymous FTP Information

Accessing using an FTP Client:

To log into your anonymous FTP account, you will need to connect to ftp://ftp.yourdomain.com with a FTP client program, using the settings below:

server: ftp.yourdomain.com
login: anonymous@yourdomain.com
pass: password

Your root folder on your account for your anonymous FTP is public_ftp

Accessing via your browser:

To access anonymous ftp via a web browser one would use a URL similar to the following example:

ftp://anonymous%40yourdomain.com:anonymous%40yourdomain.com@ftp.yourdomain.com

Just substitute your domain name for "yourdomain.com" in the example above. The reason you need to use "%40" instead of "@" in the username/password is because browsers use the "@" as a delimiter for username/password and the domain your FTPing to. "%40" is just the "@" url encoded.
