Do you often download files from FTP sites? Do you believe that you can create a FTP site of your own? No problem! If you have a powerful and easy to use FTP server, this is a little case for you! Here is a popular FTP server utility I will recommend to you. That is FileCOPA FTP Server. Following are the detailed functions of it.

FileCOPA FTP Server is ideal for business users who require a powerful and flexible FTP Server. FileCOPA has a user-friendly interface making managing an FTP server an absolute doddle. FileCOPA takes the hard work out of running an FTP Server. The FileCOPA FTP Server installs on any version of the Microsoft Windows operating system with just a few clicks of the mouse and automatically configures itself for anonymous operation. FileCOPA's features include full passive FTP support, unlimited connections, anonymous FTP support, Live WHO Lookup and W3C Log File compliance. FileCOPA FTP Server can be installed on any version of the Microsoft Windows operating system with just a few clicks of the mouse and automatically configures itself for anonymous operation. FileCOPA FTP Server does not limit the number of connections and we can configure an unlimited number of users. By running as a system service on Windows NT based systems (2000/XP/2003/Vista and 2008) FileCOPA FTP Server will always be running, even if no physical user is logged in on our machine. With FileCOPA's active control panel, we can even see who is online, and what they are doing, and as FileCOPA FTP Server will produce W3C, industry standard, Log Files we can analyse our logs with any commercially available log file tools. The key functions and benefits of FileCOPA FTP Server include:

FileCOPA FTP Server can be configured with an unlimited number of users. Each user can be given their own private directory, or can share a directory with other users. With the FileCOPA FTP Server we can limit the systems that can connect to our server. Block IP addresses and address ranges, allow only specific addresses, limit the number of connections from single IP addresses and limit the number of concurrent connections. FileCOPA FTP Server will even keep an eye out for people trying to abuse our system and will block their IP address automatically saving us from stolen resources and protecting our system against unauthorized entry.

FileCOPA FTP Server contains a fully configurable event system. Based on actions that occur during an FTP session (Connection, Disconnection, Login, Download file, etc) events can be configured to occur when that action takes place. For example, we may wish to send ourselves an email each time user X connects, or play a notification sound each time a user downloads a file. Events can be configured globally and over-ridden for specific users. We may wish to be notified when user Z uploads a file, but not when user Y uploads a file.

FileCOPA secure FTP Server has full support for both implicit and explicit SSL (Secure Socket Layer) connections. A CSR (Certificate Signing Request) generator is included to make getting our certificate even easier. FileCOPA SFTP Server supports up to V5 of the SSH SFTP protocol. Individual users can be configured for bandwidth throttling. This limits the speed that they can upload or download to our site.

FileCOPA Secure FTP Server fully supports passive FTP connections. Passive FTP is of great benefit to customers who are likely to connect to us through a firewall. Most FTP client software defaults to passive use now making it easier for the user to connect, without an FTP server that supports passive FTP these users are going to be locked out.

While passive FTP is great for FTP client users (the people who are connecting to us), it can be a nightmare for the FTP Server administrator. Passive FTP usually assumes all incoming TCP ports are open, but this could make our system very insecure. FileCOPA secure FTP Server allows us to limit which ports will be used for Passive FTP connections. Armed with this information we can just open the limited number of ports on our firewall, allowing us to keep our system safe and secure.

FileCOPA FTP Server can be configured to report our routers IP address for passive FTP transfers. This allows us to successfully run the FTP Server on a private address behind our router/firewall. Connecting clients will be supplied our public/router IP address to connect to rather than the private address the server is running on.

When FileCOPA FTP Server is initially installed it will automatically be configured with anonymous user access. Traditional incoming folders are automatically created and access rights are restricted in the traditional manner. Files can only be inserted into the incoming folder and files cannot be downloaded from here adding to our security.

On NT based systems (Windows 2000/XP/2003 and Vista) FileCOPA FTP Server runs as a system service. This adds to our security and ensures that our FTP Server is always running, regardless of which user is logged into our system.

FileCOPA FTP Server includes support for the extended FTP PSWD command, allowing us to let our users choose their own passwords. FileCOPA FTP Server support for XMD5, XSHA1 and XCRC file integrity check command.

With user ratios we can force users to upload before they are allowed to download files. Ratios can be set by files or bytes so we can make sure our users don't upload a small file to enable them to download a larger one. FileCOPA FTP Server will allow us to temporarily disable a users access rights without deleting all the users information. Re-enable the user later simply by un-checking the disable user flag.

In addition, FileCOPA FTP Server provides a free trial for us. It is a standalone software and does not need any extra software and hardware requirement. FileCOPA FTP Server does not contain any adware or spyware. It works with most recent variants of Windows. With all these features, simple interface, excellent usability, and free trial - why are you still reading? Download the free trial now and experience how powerful and effective it is at once!
