FTP Configation with IP addresses

JackR · Post by **JackR** » Mon Aug 06, 2012 9:21 pm

Hi Jussi,

Our internal FTP server doesn't have any DNS name and so we access it with a static IP address. It looks like Zeus doesn't support IP addresses, only DNS names. Is there any way to configure Zeus' ftp feature for IP addresses?

Thanks!
Jack

Yes. In the FTP configuration screen instead of putting in the server name, just put in the server IP address.

Cheers Jussi

Hi Jussi,

I can successfully enter IP addresses in the configuration. When I try "open for FTP...", and then click the Load button, I get an error that the URL entered is not the correct format.

Assume you have a server IP address something like this:

Code: Select all

111.22.333.345

That would be the value you would enter into the server name in the configuration section.

That means to browse the ftp server you would enter this FTP address and then hit the browse button:

Code: Select all

ftp://111.22.333.345/

You could also load a file by entering something like this and hitting the load button:

Code: Select all

ftp://111.22.333.345/home/src/someFile.html

Also if you turn on the debug option foind in the General section of the Options, Editor Options menuc you can see the FTP debug output in the Macros debug output menu.

Cheers Jussi
