FTPS is FTP over SSL or TLS.


SFTP is allowed on any server, and you can connect over port 2222. If you cannot connect, please contact us at support@smartlabsoftwarehosting.com to tell us.


FTPS is allowed on dedicated and VPS servers only. Please submit a ticket to support@smartlabsoftwarehosting.com requesting "enable TLS for FTP".
