Here at Atomic Host we offer a built in file manager. However we do also offer SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol). This allows you to use software on your computer, In our case we recommend using FileZilla as it is free to download.
Firstly, install your FTP / SFTP software of choice, we highly recommend using FileZila as it is free to download. You may use a different preferred software instead.
You can find your SFTP Details by navigating to:
Your Server >> Settings >> SFTP
Here you will see your Host name, Port and Username. If this is your first time using SFTP on this server, please click the Change / Reset Password Button.
When you have opened FileZilla, Navigate to
File >> Site Manager
On the left you will see all your sites / servers you can connect too. We need to add your server to this list, so to do so press
New Site
Next, make sure the following settings are as shown
Protocol: SFTP - SSH File Transfer Protocol
Host: HOST-NAME-HERE PORT: 2022
Logon Type: Normal
User: USER-NAME-HERE
Password: PASSWORD-HERE
You can optionally add a comment. Otherwise, you can press
OK
Now. To connect to your SFTP, you can navigate back to
File >> Site Manager
then single left click on your new server entry, then press
Connect
