| + WS_FTP Server 5.0 Features |
| WS_FTP
Server offers many features not found in many FTP servers
today, including 128-Bit SSL support, auto resume, an intuitive
GUI, and configurable security options.
|
|
|
|
128-Bit
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Encryption
Higher level of SSL security keeps your information confidential
during transfer over the Internet when you connect with an
128-bit encryption enabled client like WS_FTP Pro 7.02 or
later. |
|
|
|
Firewall/Network
Address Translations (NAT) support for SSL connections
Configure IP address and ports when using PASV command (with
or without SSL) for better performance with firewalls and
new NAT devices. |
|
|
|
Create
SSL certificates and a Trusted Authorities database on a per
host basis
Limit access to valuable data with the ability to create SSL
certificates and a Trusted Authorities database on a per host
basis |
|
|
|
Log
Analyzer provides a comprehensive
analysis of FTP traffic which helps you quickly and easily
identify patterns, track performance, and better manage and
plan your resources. |
|
|
|
Wizards
New Host and New User Wizards have been added to the install
process. These guide you during set-up to insure Install &
Run functionality. |
|
| |
Block
file uploads, downloads, deletions, renaming, and directory
creation on a per user basis
You can also set up rules automatically triggered by a specified
event such as the uploading of an executable file. |

|
| |
File
lock during upload prevents users from downloading
a file before it is fully uploaded to the server |
|
|
|
Set
default user settings
Administrators can set default host and user level options
once and then have them automatically apply to all new users
added from that point on. |
|
| |
Flag
All
Enables administrators to set user options for all users at
once and to un-set them manually for the minority instead
of having to set the flag manually for the majority of the
users. Use it when setting max number of files and space,
activating and deactivating accounts, setting users' ability
to change their passwords remotely, locking users in their
home directories, and more. |
|
|
|
User
Directory Option
The option to not automatically create user directories now
allows administrators to eliminate upload capabilities for
users except for virtual folders they specifically give permissions
for. |
|
| |
Extended
Storage Space
64-bit support for file sizes and quotas enables administrators
to extend storage space in excess of 2 GB, which is of great
importance to users with limited storage. Quota support per
user is setting a limit of how many files or how much disk
space they are allowed to use in their Home folder. Previously
the maximum space you could limit them to without giving them
unlimited space was around 2GB. By increasing the limit to
a 64-bit integer you can assign limits beyond terabytes. |
|
|
|
Confirmation
Password
The added field in user properties dialog helps increase ease
of use by reducing the chance of saving a mistyped password. |
|
|
|
User
ID and password is encrypted whether connected with
SSL or not. |
|
|
|
Configurable
Security Options
Keep your files secure by setting read, write, delete, list,
and rename permissions on shared folders and allowing access
based on IP address. |
|
|
|
Permissions
can be set on shared folders on a per-user or per-group
basis to limit access |
|
|
|
Remote
Administration
Add and remove users and adjust permissions from any workstation
on the network. |
|
| |
Virtual
Servers
Utilize a single NT/2000/XP Server to host multiple FTP sites
with different domains |
|
|
|
NT
User Authentication against a non-domain controller
provides the convenience of placing WS_FTP Server anywhere
on your network as opposed to the NT domain server. This feature
makes it easier to update and maintain the server. |
|
|
|
User
Access Controls
Administrators now have several new features to control the
way visitors interact with the server |
|
|
|
Lock
users into their home folder so that users are limited
to their home directory structure. |
|
| |
Virtual
Folders
Also from a user's home folder, administrators may grant virtual
folder access to files so that they can be shared by multiple
users without any knowledge that another user exists. |
|
|
|
Hide
the existence of other users' folders which prevents
users who have access beyond their home folder from seeing
the names of other user folders on the system. |
|
|
|
AUTH
TLS & AUTH TLS-C User Authentication Support has
been added so that WS_FTP Server will work with a wider variety
of FTP clients allowing more people to access the server.
|
|
|
|
Customizable
Site Commands provide administrators with more ways
to manage the server and files. |
|
| |
Ability
to Share User's Database with Windows NT/2000/XP and
IMail Server or entered directly into WS_FTP Server's own
user database -- expanding your permission management options.
Users can also be added en masse with the command line utility.
ODBC Integration saves administrators time when setting up
and maintaining user accounts and permissions. |
|
|
|
Auto
re-get
Restart interrupted file transfers, where they left off so
users never lose valuable data because of a lost connection.
|
|
|
|
Complies
with current Internet standards for file transfer protocol
so incompatibility is never an issue when transferring data
|
|
|
|
Runs
as an NT Service for automatic start-up and secure
no logon operation |
|
|
|
Supports
Anonymous Users for fast file distribution so folders
and files on the site can be available to the public without
having to create and maintain user accounts |
|
|
|
Ability
to Track Event Occurrences allows your users to execute
a program or batch file each time a specific event occurs
on the server. |
|
|
|
FTP
Server Manager Application may be installed on a computer
other than the one that the FTP Server is installed on. |
