Serv-U usage tutorial 1. Install Serv-U
Serv-U installation is quite simple. You just need to double-click the downloaded installation file file and click the "NEXT" button all the way to complete it easily. Note: When selecting the installation directory, it is best to install it in a non-system disk, so as to avoid re-setting the account and other settings in the future when an abnormality occurs in the system.
Serv-U usage tutorial 2. Setting up Serv-U
When Serv-U is run for the first time, it prompts the user to set it step by step in a wizard way. Below, we will explain:
"Your IP address": If you use ADSL and other methods to dial up the Internet, you have a dynamic IP or don't know the local IP, please leave it blank here.
"Domain Name": It is the name of the FTP site, and can be named at will. For example, Myftp.
"Anonymous Account": Decide whether the FTP site allows anonymous users to access. Select the Yes option.
"Anonymous Home Directory": Set the directory location where anonymous users are after logging into the site. Enter "C:\Ftp".
"Locked in home directory": Assuming that the directory location where an anonymous user logs in is set to "C:\Ftp\Guest" in the "Anonymous Home Directory", then, after selecting "Yes", when the anonymous user logs in to FTP, it is locked in the C:\Ftp\Guest directory. You can only view the contents in the Guest directory and cannot enter the upper directory "Ftp". At the same time, the directory is displayed as "\" in the FTP client software. If it is not locked, it will be displayed as "C:\Ftp\Guest". Select "Yes" here.
"Named Account": Decide whether to create an account with certain administrative rights. Select "Yes" here.
"Account Name": It is the account login name with certain management permissions.
"Account Password": Set the login password for the account.
"Home Directory": Like "Anonymous Home Directory", it is used to set the directory location where the management account is located after logging in. Enter "C:\Ftp".
"Lock in Home Directory": Select "Yes".
"Administrator Permissions": Used to set the administrative permission level of the management account. Select "No permission" here.
Tip: The above settings are not the final settings, you can also modify them at any time in the Serv-U main interface.
Serv-U usage tutorial 3. Set up multiple FTP servers with the same IP
If bandwidth allows, you can also easily set up multiple servers with the same IP. In Serv-U, each FTP server in the "Domain" under "Local Server" is called the "Domain". The FTP server we created above is a domain named "MyFtp". To set up multiple servers, it is actually just to create multiple domains with different ports.
Right-click "Domain", select the "New Domain" command, and refer to "MyFtp" in the wizard that appears to set it. However, at the port, you must not conflict with the port of the "Domain" you have created or the port occupied by other system services. If filled in 22. With the same operation, multiple FTP servers can be set up.
Serv-U usage tutorial 4. Make your FTP more professional
When you log in to some professional FTP sites, some welcome information will be displayed, such as displaying your IP, telling you how many people are currently using FTP, how much bandwidth is, etc. In fact, you can do it yourself, Serv-U itself has this function. Let’s explain how to add this information to your intranet FTP.
Create a text file first and give it a name. For example.
Then add the literal text to this text file. For example:
Welcome to XXX's personal FTP server
Your IP address is %IP
The current server is %time
%u24h users have accessed this FTP in the last 24 hours
This FTP server has been running %ServerDays days, %ServerHours hours and %ServerMins points.
Server operation status
Number of all logged in users: %loggedInAll total
Current number of logged in users: %Unow
Number of bytes downloaded: %ServerKbDown Kb
Number of bytes uploaded: %ServerKbUp Kb
Number of files have been downloaded: %ServerFilesDown
Number of files uploaded: %ServerFilesUp
Average server bandwidth: %ServerAvg Kb/sec
Current server bandwidth: %ServerKBps Kb/sec
Among them, XXX can be changed to your name, or you can add some text you think you like, but it is important to note that each line should not exceed 80 characters, among which % starts with some variables. The following are variables that SERV-U can support:
(1) Time and date
