The FTP program is used to upload and download files between two computer systems, the client and the server.

The first time you open WS_FTP two windows will appear. The window on top is called "Session Profile."

• The "Profile Name" box - This box will contain the name of the remote server you are connecting to. You can use the pop-up menu to choose the name, just click on the arrow. If you are adding a new name to this list it can be saved using the "save" button below this box.
• The "Host Name" box - After choosing a name from the "Profile Name" box, this box is automatically filled in.
• The "Host Type" box - The default for this box is "Automatic Detect." This is best left alone, unless specified by remote host.
• The "User ID" box - If you are connecting to your StoneMedia site, then use your username. Otherwise, the default for this box is "Anonymous." This is best left alone, unless specified by remote host.
• The "Password" box - Again, if you are connecting to your StoneMedia site, then use your StoneMedia password. If you are connecting to an anonymous site, then you need to type in your email address.
• The "Account" box - This box should remain blank.
• The "Remote Host" box - Unless you know the directory you'd wish to visit, this box should remain blank.
• The "Local PC" box - This box can be filled in to point to the directory on your computer where you want downloads to be saved.
• Now that the boxes are filled, click the Save password box and the Auto save config box, then click OK.
