Others export settings

The Others tab of the Export Settings dialog box allows you to upload the exported file to a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server that has storage space allocated for file sharing. FTP is a common method for transferring files over a network and is especially useful for sharing relatively large files using an Internet connection. The server’s administrator can provide you with the details for connecting to the server.

The Others tab includes the following options:

Server Name
Enter the DNS or IP address of the server on which the FTP site is located.

Port
Specify the number assigned to the FTP server’s command port, which is 21 by default.

Remote Directory
Enter the location on the FTP server to access, expressed as a file path.

User Login
Enter the user’s identity, as designated by the server’s administrator.

Password
Enter the password to a password-protected server.

Retries
Specify the number of attempts to contact the server if a connection isn’t established.

Send Local File To Recycle Bin (Windows) or Send Local File To Trash (Mac OS)
Deletes the local copy of the exported file once it’s been uploaded to the FTP server.

Test
Verifies the connection with the FTP server.
