Connect to the FTP server

It is easy to connect your PC or local server to the FTP server with ftp tools if you need to download massive files. Depending on the operating system, there are free tools available such as Filezilla or rsync. Many NAS / local server / local storage systems also offer a way to connect and synchronize files to your local storage. New modifications on files will be mirrored automatically. In some file systems, you are able to link/mount external FTP servers as a drive.

The user account is username: labdoo and the password is: labdoo. This user is not able to change or delete files, but can download them. If you need other privileges to write files, please contact us and explain your purpose at contact@Labdoo.org.

Settings for Filezilla

Server = ftp.labdoo.org/download/
User = labdoo
Password = labdoo
Protocol = sftp

You may also change the start directory in the Filezilla by going to settings → Advanced → directory. By changing the start directory, you won't need to click through the directory tree every time when you login.

Connecting using a file explorer

With Windows operating system, you need to install an external software tool, such as Filezilla. Please follow the link and settings above.
