How to get FTP transfer up and running

[yshua]

Dear Forum Readers:

 

        Am used to encoding ftp downloads and uploads in Basic, but am wondering if the password is set in the config.php file for "blowfish_secret" and what relevance, if any, the $cfg['UpLoadDir'] ='' and $cfg['SaveDir'] = '' commands might have to do with it also.  Before only the httpd.conf file seemed to have any relevance.  The config.php file is found in the PHPmyAdmin package, you all probably know all about!

 

Help,

phpMyAdmin has nothing to do with FTP.

Thanks, Pikachu2000:

 

        Well, in that case, where and how do you set the password, do you use the user name admin@<website>, and then can I use normal basic program for uploading/downloading as for my former Yahoo website? 

 

Am still quite green,

Dear Readers:

 

            Got some code from SourceForge.net as follows:

 

#server.url    -  Specify the url of the php service. It should point to

#                  "server.php" if you didn't change the file name. And

#                  you'd better append a parameter named ftp_home whose

#                  value assigns a path for the ftp home relative to the

#                  "server.php" in the php server.

server.url=http://www.fantix.cn/phpftp/server.php?ftp_home=../

 

 

#server.port    -  Specify the port of the local server.

server.port=21

 

#

#log.priority  -  Specify log priority.

#                  Possible values:

#                  EMERG, ALERT, CRIT, ERR, WARNING, NOTICE, INFO, DEBUG

log.priority=INFO

 

#log.output    -  Specify where to output logs.

#                  The value can be either "stderr" for System.err

#                  or a name of a log file.

log.output=stderr

 

Does this look good, and belong in httpd.conf?
