Other ALFTP menus and items

FTP Server Message Window
FTP servers often have a welcome message that often contains special instructions or recent information. You can display it automatically every time you visit a site by checking it in the ALFTP preferences. Uncheck "Show server message on connect" if you do not wish to read them.

Duplicate Files

If a file with the same name already exists, ALFTP can take one of several actions:

  • Skip download/uploading the file, leaving the existing file intact
  • Overwrite the existing file with the download/upload file
  • Resume downloading/uploading the file

Resuming a file download or upload is useful for very large transfers that get interrupted. ALFTP will measure how much of the file was successfully transferred, and then continue from there.
