We are pleased to announce a significant enhancement to the FTP facilities. These developments have seen the introduction of a redundant proxy setup which forwards traffic to the appropriate FTP server. This new arrangement means:
a) You no longer need to use different FTP addresses for Windows and Linux accounts. Both the ftp. or ftp1. addresses will connect regardless of the account type you are connecting to. You can no longer connect to FTP using the domain name. It must take the form of ftp.domain.com.
b) We have increased the level of logging that is completed. This logging can now be accessed online by editing the hosting account within your control panel. The logs include:
– Login date and time
– Log out date and time
– IP Address
– Ability to view whois of the IP
– Country of origin
– Login status (including wrong password)
– FTP commands completed during session
We hope that this new enhancement simplifies how you connect and improves the security of your accounts.
