All IBackup accounts, including Sub-Accounts are FTP ready. IBackup accounts are compatible with most FTP clients on most platforms providing a powerful flexible tool to transfer files. IBackup's FTP server even supports full 128 bit SSL encryption. Please follow the following settings to access your IBackup account using your favorite FTP client. Please note that setting the transfer type to 'Passive Mode' usually helps to access through proxy servers and some firewall configurations.

Hostname : ibackup.com or ftp.ibackup.com, and secure.ibackup.com for FTP with SSL
Username : Your IBackup account username
Password : Your IBackup account password
If your FTP client* supports SSL, set type to Implicit SSL at port 990, or Explicit SSL at Port 27. CuteFtpPro supports both Implicit SSL as well as Explicit SSL connections, while WsFTPPro supports Explicit SSL by default.

* Please note IBackup's FTP Server supports implicit SSL connection at port 990 as well as explicit SSL at port 27. Popular FTP clients with SSL options that have been tested to work well with IBackup include CuteFtpPro and WSFTPPro. 

For CuteFtpPro, Please make sure you have the connection type set to Implicit SSL and set a value of 50000 KB or higher for use of the same session to transfer files in 'Transfer Settings'. This will help in reliable transfers even for slower connections. You can also choose Explicit SSL connection and set the port to 27.

For WSFTPPro, please make sure you have SSL option checked, and set the port to 27. You may be prompted to trust the SSL certificate. Please do so for successful FTP access using SSL.
