How to Remove Anonymous FTP access?

Removing Anonymous FTP access is as simple as enabling the access. Removing access does not delete your public_ftp folder or its contents (you should not delete this folder anyway), but it does prevent anyone from accessing that folder through FTP.

  1. Click on the Ftp Manager button on the home page.
  2. Click on the Anonymous FTP Controls link.
  3. Remove the tick from the Allow anonymous access to ftp://ftp.yourdomain.com tick box or the Allow anonymous upload to ftp://ftp.yourdomain.com/incoming tick boxes.
  4. Click on the Save Settings button.
