FTP Upload
FTP Upload
Upload live video to your ftp server. Fill Server, Name and Password fields with values given to you by your ISP.
When you check the Enable box or press the Ftp button it will initiate ftp upload to your web site. There you must have your webpage with the webcam image link.
Please take a look at the 'Program Files\Willing Webcam\Web Pages\FTP Upload\index.html' webpage template. You are free to change the template to meet your needs if you want to. Its java script is used to refresh the webcam image only without affecting other webpage elements.

Passive mode
FTP is an unusual protocol in that it uses two ports, one for commands and the other for data. (This is one of the reasons it is superior to HTTP for transferring large files.) Active FTP was invented first. The client initiates a connection on the server’s command port. The server then initiates a connection with the client from its data port. In Passive FTP, the client initiates both connections with the server, which remains “passive”.
Active FTP may cause problems if your client is behind a firewall. From the firewall’s point of view, the FTP server that is trying to initiate a connection with your client looks like an intruder and is usually blocked. This is why many users have difficulty using FTP to download files from behind a firewall.
Passive FTP solves this problem, but creates other problems, notably where FTP server security is concerned. The server must listen on a large number of ports. This requires the firewall to let a lot of unqualified traffic through. Most firewall administrators do not like this.
As a rule, you do not need to be concerned about passive and active FTP unless you administer an FTP server or a firewall. If you experience difficulty using your FTP client from behind a firewall, this is likely the reason. Perhaps you should discuss the matter with your firewall administrator.

FTP over SSL

SSL mode
Implicit version of protocol is known as SFTP (or FTPS). Generally use Explicit mode instead of Implicit one.
Encrypt data channel
Set up encrypted data transfer.
Advanced
Change default FTP port, passive mode and timeout if needed.
Port
FTP port.
Timeout
Set the number of seconds before timeout will occur. It's normal that an FTP connection hangs
sometimes, but the program must reestablish it after that. Actually uploading via FTP consists of four main stages: establishing an
FTP connection, changing the FTP folder, actually uploading files via FTP and breaking the FTP connection (it may also include
renaming files). If establishing an FTP connection takes more than the Timeout value, the FTP cycle will be
interrupted by the program. If uploading via FTP takes more than 5*Timeout value, the FTP cycle will be interrupted as well.
So if the Timeout is 20 and uploading via FTP hangs on the uploading stage, the new cycle will start in 100 seconds.
The cycle will start in 20 seconds for other stages.
