How to set up CoreFTP to use FTP over SSL?

Windows 2008/IIS 7 allows a secure FTP connection via FTP over SSL. Note that this is not the same as SFTP (FTP via SSH), so you may have to experiment a bit with your FTP client settings to get a secure connection. Our tests were successful with the following.

   1. Click File -> Connect
   2. Choose New Site and enter your chosen site name
   3. Fill in the following fields:

• Host - Enter FTP address( like ftp.HostBuddy.com), which can be found in Control Panel
• Set the "Connection" Field to "Auth SSL"
• Username – Enter your FTP username.
• Password – Enter the password for this user.

   5. SSL Options

• SSL Listings; SSL Transfer; OpenSSL

   6. Click Connect

Note: If you receive a generic "could not connect" error, or in implicit mode see an attempted connection to port 21, you have a configuration error. Please cut and paste the login information from Control Panel to make sure you are supplying the proper credentials.
