Create an FTP account in DirectAdmin

Updated on 4 November 20261 min read

With an extra FTP account you give someone access to one folder, without sharing your main password.

Here's how

  1. Log in to DirectAdmin: open your plan in your client area and click Open DirectAdmin. You're signed in right away.
  2. Go to Account Manager → FTP Management and click Create FTP account at the top right.
  3. Enter a username and password and choose the folder.
  4. Click Create and keep the details safe.

Faster without DirectAdmin: in DigiPanel you do this under Website → FTP accounts.
