Create New User

User Name:
Password:
Confirm:
 

Overview
This function allows you to create additional users. With these users, you may use the Edit : User Permissions function to grant them access to certain files or directories, or add the user to the permissions list in FrontPage.

 Fields
 User Name (Required)
This field is for identifying the user name you wish to create.
 Password (Required)
This field is for setting the password for the user you are creating.
 Confirm (Required)
This field is for confirming the password.

Notes

If a directory exists with the same name as the user name, the user will be automatically placed into that directory when logging in through an FTP program.

Unfortunately, there is no way to restrict the user to this directory, as they may back out into your root directory and browse the other directories.

The only difference is, based on the permissions you've set for them, they will be unable to do anything outside of listing your files.

Both user names and passwords are CaSe SeNSiTiVe.

Sample
 Creating a user:
User Name: rsmith
 Password: lament
  Confirm: lament
