Use this dialog box to specify FTP server connection information for the Deployment Manager.

Item 
Description 
Server  
Specifies the internet host name or IP address for the FTP server. It will be prefixed with FTP://.  
Port  
Indicates the port to use on the FTP server for the connection. The default port is 21.  
Passive Mode  
Causes the connection to be established by your computer, rather than the FTP server. Check Passive Mode if your computer is protected by a firewall that would block a connection initiated by the FTP server.  
Directory  
Specifies the directory on the FTP server to which you want to copy files.  
Anonymous Login  
Logs into the FTP server with a user name of anonymous and a password of your email address, rather than using an actual account on the server. (The FTP server must be configured to accept anonymous logins.)  
Email  
If you checked Anonymous Login, specify your email address, for example, [email protected].  
Username  
Specifies the user name for the connection when not using an anonymous login.  
Password  
Specifies the password for the connection when not using an anonymous login.  
Save Password (Clear Text)  
Stores the password in the Deployment Manager file (.bdsdeploy)as plain, unencrypted text in the project directory and may compromise security.  
Test  
Tests the connection to the FTP server and provides feedback.
