Building FileZilla Auto SiteManager

#1 Post by thatsme » 2009-01-17 06:59

Hi,

I have seen in a site where one can download filezilla client. When i downloaded and double clicked on the icon i saw allready the sitemanager was configured to their ftp site.

I would like to implement the same for my site. Can someone tell me which files and what changes i have to make in filezilla, i have allready downloaded the source from http://filezilla-project.org/.

my platform is windows

Thanks

thanks for the reply.

I found in 2.2.3a version the site manager starts on startup so i downloaded that version. In my site,

A set of designated people will upload files to sites. When they start filezilla the site manager should be visible to them with sitenames. They have to provide username and password and proceed to upload the files.

Is the above feature possible. if yes, could you explain how to do it.


Thanks

I hope this is a syntax error. Version 3.2.0 is the current version. So many security problems have been fixed, you'd be at great risk with such an ancient version.

In the recent version there is no option for making sitemanager visible onstartup.

When i run nsis, i am getting the error - C:\Program Files\NSIS\Unicode\Plugins\ZipDLL.dll" -> no files found. Should i have to download and install ZipDLL.dll?

Did you even follow the link botg posted above?

Edit your start menu shortcut's Target field and add -s after the line and a space. Example:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\Filezilla FTP Client\Filezilla.exe" -s
