How to Connect via SFTP with FileZilla

This tutorial will guide you step-by-step to connect to your XeroHost server via SFTP using FileZilla.

Step 1: Download and Install FileZilla

If you don't have FileZilla yet, download it from its official website:

Install it on your computer and open it.

Step 2: Get your SFTP credentials

1. Access the XeroHost panel: https://panel.xerohost.net
2. Select your server that you want to access via SFTP.
3. In the left menu, click on Settings.
   
4. In the SFTP Details section, you will find the following data:
   • Server Address
   • Username
     

Note: Your SFTP password is the same one you use to log in to the panel.

Step 3: Configure FileZilla

1. Open FileZilla and at the top, you will see the following fields:
   • Host: Type the SFTP address (Example: sftp://us1.apple.xerohost.net:2022).
   • Username: Copy your SFTP username from the panel.
   • Password: Enter the same password as your XeroHost panel.
   • Port: Specify 2022.
2. Click on Quickconnect.

If everything is correct, FileZilla will display a list of your server's files and folders.
