To access the e-FTP module:
Click the Comm Channel icon.
Select Tools | FTP.
The e-FTP window displays.
You already entered information that is given to e-FTP in the General tab of the Communications Channel – New window. You selected a communication type—FTP. On the Host tab, you entered login information for that communications type; information such as user ID, password, server name, user account, and port. Now, you must enter the remaining information that EC Gateway needs to communicate using the communication type that you selected.
Select the site you want to connect to by scrolling through the communications channel text box (to create a new site see the next section).
Click Login. If you are connected to your Internet Service Provider (ISP), your connection will begin automatically, assuming you have loaded your connection hardware and software. If you do not have access to your ISP, then you cannot use e-FTP to transfer files.
Select the file to be sent from the local system, or select the directory from the local system to send all the files in the selected directory.
Select the directory on the remote system where the file or directory of files is to be placed.
To send the selected file, click Put, or, to send the entire directory, click Mput.
To upload files using drag and drop, follow these steps:
Double-click the directory on the remote system where the file is to be placed.
Click on the file to be sent from the local system.
Hold down the mouse button and drag the file from the left file pane (your local system) to the right pane (the remote system).
