FTP Instructions

Hello,

I tried to setup an FTP account in total commander, but I could not enter a name. It said "name - if you want to save:" but I could not enter a name.

When I click "FTP" on the drive menu, nothing happens.

How do you use FTP? Is there an IRC channel for this app?

It is not a forum for total commander :), but in FreeCommander you can try:
  • Shift+2
    double click on "New FTP connection"
    define your FTP connection

Sorry, I just switched to Free Commander. My bad with the typo.

Shift + 2 doesn't seem to do anything (a key combo, right?). Where do I press it? In the "main" view?

Activate the option Extras - Settings - Drives: "Show FTP as Drive".

That option was a default that came with the program. I still cannot access any FTP sites.

Oh, I didn't know FTP didn't work with the combo box. Is that because combo boxes require too many ports? :P

It works great with the bar. Has it been reported officially as a bug?

Is there any way to get the tree to show up while in FTP mode? I just get the file list :(
