📡How to Connect via SFTP

Introduction

The File Manager handles single-file edits beautifully. For bulk uploads (modpacks, big worlds, mass plugin updates), SFTP is faster and more reliable.

What You'll Need

• An SFTP client: FileZilla (free, all OS) or WinSCP (Windows)
• Your SFTP credentials from the panel

Find Your SFTP Credentials

1. 1Open the panel → Settings → SFTP Details
2. 2Note down:

• Host, usually sftp.endercloud.in or your node hostname
• Port, typically 2022
• Username, yourname.serverID
• Password, your panel password

Connect with FileZilla

1. 1Open FileZilla
2. 2File → Site Manager → New Site
3. 3Pick Protocol: SFTP - SSH File Transfer Protocol
4. 4Enter Host, Port, Username, Password
5. 5Click Connect
6. 6Accept the host key fingerprint

The right pane shows your server files. Drag from the left pane to upload.

Connect with WinSCP

1. 1Open WinSCP
2. 2New Session → File Protocol: SFTP
3. 3Enter Host, Port, Username, Password
4. 4Click Login
5. 5Accept the fingerprint

Tips for Big Transfers

• Stop the server first for world transfers, prevents file conflicts
• Set Transfer Type to Binary in FileZilla (Transfer → Transfer Type → Binary)
• Compress before uploading, upload one .zip, extract via File Manager
• Resume interrupted transfers, both clients support this

Warning: Don't change permissions unless you know what you're doing. Defaults are correct. Wrong perms can prevent the server from starting.
