Connecting to a Remote Server

To connect to a remote server, do the following:

  1. In GNOME FTP, click Remote+Open URL.

  2. Specify a URL to connect to, then enter a username and password.

    Leave the username blank to log in as anonymous user.

  3. Click Connect.

    If connection was successful, a list of the files on the remote server appears in the right part of the GNOME FTP window (the file list on the left side is your local computer's directory of files). You can now upload and download files.

To bookmark a site you access frequently, click Bookmarks+Add Bookmark. Specify a name for the bookmark, then click Add. The new bookmark is added to your list of bookmarks.
