FTP is one of the protocols used to transfer files over the networks or internet.
FTP means File Transfer Protocol.
The important characteristic of FTP is that the sender inserts IP addresses in the body of the data that is to be send the receiver then extracts these addresses and uses them.
The Configuration procedures are different for different FTP servers and Clients.
so,please go through the user guides or manuals of the soft ware you use to configure FTP.
some of the FTP servers and client softwares are FileZilla,Apache,Tomcat ,Jakartha etc.
These softwares help in easy configuration of FTP so, download and use one of this.I suggest to use FileZilla coz its free and it is an OpenSouce project supported by most of the networks.
Thank u

Well Shashi , File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a network protocol used to transfer data from one computer to another through a network such as the Internet.

FTP is a file transfer protocol for exchanging and manipulating files over a TCP computer network. A FTP client may connect to a FTP server to manipulate files on that server. As there are many FTP client and server programs available for different operating systems, FTP is a popular choice for exchanging files independent of the operating systems involved.


To configure an FTP site in IIS, please follow these steps:

1. Log into your server through Terminal Services or Remote Desktop Connection.
2. Create a username you would like to have FTP access to the server. For detailed instructions on creating a new user please see How do I create a new user on my Windows 2000 & 2003 Server?
3. Click Start, Programs, Administrative Tools, Internet Services Manager.
4.Open the New FTP Site Wizard:

1. In IIS 5.0, right click the machine name and select New, FTP site.
2. In IIS 6.0, expand local machine and right click on FTP Sites and select New, FTP site

5. Click Next to begin.
6. Enter a description for the site. Typically this will be the domain name for the site.
7. Select the IP address for the site, or if the customer is using name based hosting select [All Unassigned] The TCP Port remains 21.

8.Click Next.
9. If you are using IIS 6.0 you will need to set FTP User Isolation. We strongly recommend you select Do not isolate Users.

10. Click Next.
11. Enter the path to the directory you wish the user to have FTP access to. This can be the full site directory or limited to a single sub directory.

12. Click Next.
13. Set the Access Permissions, Read and/or Write. This will control the access level the FTP user has on the files in the FTP home directory.

14. Click Next. Click Finish.

Well Shahsi! here is the complte datail about FTP:-

In order to expand your sharing options, Jing has added support for FTP uploading. Using FTP is something of an advanced feature and it requires a bit of know-how. To upload to FTP with Jing, you need access to an FTP server with a Web accessible directory and the knowledge to write your own share and embed code.

You need to know the following information to configure FTP upload:

Server: This is the IP or DNS address of the server. Do not use "ftp://" before the adress.
Port: The port to use for the FTP connection.
Directory: The location or file path on your FTP server where Jing content is stored. This is relative to the user's root directory.
Username: Your username to log into the FTP server.
Password: Your password associated with the username.
With all this information, Jing can upload to your FTP server. Unfortunately, because of the wide variety of ways your FTP server might be configured, we can't generate the URL or embed code for you. This means you get to create your own. To make this easier, we've added tags that act as variables that you can stick in your own code. For more information on using these tags, check out this blog post.

For those wanting a quick and dirty example of how a URL or embed link might look, try adjusting this URL for your own use. In the Share field, replace the domain and directory with your choices while leaving the [filename] tag for Jing to replace automatically:
http://www.yourDomain.com/yourDir ectory/[filename]
