  3. Specify the following information for the new FTP User and click Add to create the FTP User:
     
    • Username: A standard username for the new FTP user.
       
    • Password: A password which the new FTP user would provide on login.
       
    • Home directory: The user will automatically be directed to this directory; his access will be restricted to this directory and all its sub-directories. This user will not be able to access any files in a parent directory. The "Home Directory" has to exist at the time of adding the user; by default, it is set to root.
       
    • Restrict Web Space: This allows you to restrict the amount of content that the FTP user can upload to your website.
