You can then rename it to something more meaningful, and then you’re set! No more using your browser to access your FTP, and no more needing to log in each time.
LOGGING INTO FTP VIA BROWSER WINDOWS
The link on your desktop will now open your FTP in windows explorer, and will log you in automatically every time. What login credentials do I use to connect to the FTP site that is listed on the dashboard of my Azure I tried using the same credentials I use to log into Azure, but this failed. So now if you copy that above address into your start menu search box, and wait for the one internet file to be found, you can hold Alt, and then drag that file to your desktop to create a shortcut. This alone you could use to log in automatically, but we want it to open in windows explorer automatically as well. Give that a try with your ftp username and password, and site name. Recently someone showed me a way to log into an FTP site using just the URL, by simply entering the following into the internet browser:
I’ve discovered a much better way to access your FTP, so that all you need to do to open your FTP in windows explorer is open a shortcut on your desktop, no browsers or logging in required. No more going through your browser, logging in, and then opening your FTP in Windows Explorer to get an easy to use folder view.įor ages I’ve been doing exactly that, which is a pain to need to go through all of that just to open your FTP site in windows explorer. Check with your ISP to ensure that your FTP server is accessible from any address. What am I missing here? I appreciate your comments.Here’s another obvious one that will save you lots of time accessing your FTP site. If youre sure you are using the correct credentials, other possible causes for errors while logging in are that your FTP server isnt accessible from the public Internet, or that connections are restricted by IP address. I want to be able to access my ftp server via a web browser and also to be able to configure ftp on my Ipad. However, I am able to successfully login using a command prompt (ftp server_ip_address) and I am able to access ftp server files via a ftp client app using an active ftp connection ( passive connection will not work) with anonymous connections unchecked.įrom a web browser with Allow anonymous connections checked and ANY user account selected I get no login dialog and: Make sure you have permissions to access that folder. However some ISPs block port 80, so you may need to change the port number accordingly. Usually there is no need to change the port number. Go to SETTING > BASIC > Network > Information to find the HTTP port number used by the camera. IE: An error occurred opening that folder pn the FTP server. Open a web browser and type the IP address. I have tried every combination of security account configuration options available (see images below).įrom a web browser with Allow anonymous connections unchecked I get a login dialog and then:įirefox:Alert 425 Can't open data connection.
I also have configured port forwarding for tcp port 21 to the lan ip of my server and have confirmed that the associated windows firewall exceptions exist. I have created a home directory folder for the default site with wide open security permissions for everyone and all other domain users. I am unable to connect to my FTP server running on Windows Server 2008 SP2 (DC) using a web browser url of ftp://server_ip_address from any computer on my network.
