heeey guys

How can I build FTP Web Site so the visitors can download files from my site

What you want is an FTP daemon then:

http://nanoftpd.sourceforge.net/
It's an FTP daemon created in PHP, and it's completely open-source.

Here's a list of FTP daemons for linux:

Hope this helped you out :cool:

The easiest way would be to turn on anonymous ftp for your account and then place the files in the public_ftp folder.

I hate to start new threads for already answered topics so Stephen, can you tell me the next step after enabling anonymous ftp?

Any user should be able to open a browser window and type in the ftp.domainname.com and get to a list of files in my /public_ftp folder right? And they should not have to login .... isn't that the whole point of anonymous, like random visitors to any public website.

I also asked this at the end of another thread so forgive me for double posting, but I would like to get some sort of response. http://www.bluehostforum.com/showthread.php?t=9008

Thanks,

You can also put in a hyperlink and link it to the file you want to make available for downloading.

That's what I do here: http://www.bees-online.com/Download.htm
