Use this panel to define an entry in a FTP client SOCKS configuration file.
A SOCKS configuration file entry consists of an FTP server address and an indication whether to access that FTP server directly or through a SOCKS server. An entry can alternatively define a subnet, and indicate whether to access FTP servers in the subnet directly or through a SOCKS server.
When the FTP client logs in, the user specifies an FTP server address to connect to. The FTP client code accesses the SOCKS configuration file and looks for the FTP server's address or a matching subnet. It scans the entries from the top down and the first match found is used to determine whether to access the FTP server directly or through a SOCKS server.
Steps
You have completed this panel after you have entered the FTP server address or subnet and indicated whether logins to the FTP server address or subnet should connect directly to the FTP server or connect through a SOCKS server. If you selected to connect through a SOCKS server, the SOCKS server address is required.
