Making an HTTP/S connection

You can connect to and transfer files over HTTP/S connections with Microsoft IIS and Apache web servers. Full file and folder listings and navigation is supported on these servers.

Making an HTTP or HTTPS connection requires little additional configuration to new or existing site profiles.

When creating a new site profile through the Connection Wizard, change the Server Type to HTTP or HTTPS when prompted by the wizard.

If editing an existing site profile:

  1. In the toolbar, click Connect to open the Site Manager.
  2. Select the site from the configured sites list, then click Edit. The Site Options dialog appears.
  3. Select Advanced.
  4. In Server type, select HTTP or HTTPS.Click OK.
  5. Click OK to close the Site Options dialog.
  6. Click Connect to connect to the site.
