VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Everyone read this...
- When you log in to our FTP server, you should see an upload and a download folder. Put your files in the upload folder.
- Our FTP server cannot accept folders. Do not try to send folders or make folders.
- Once you upload a file you will no longer have access to it.
- Don't forget to email us with the correct order form. If you don't email us your order will not be printed.
How to connect and upload to our FTP server using Fetch
Fetch is included on the SAIC computer template. If you have a different FTP client, the connection information is the same, but it may be configured differently. Visit any one of the CRIT help desks located around campus for help.
Open Fetch
Fill in the appropriate blanks. Your log in screen* should look like the example above. Your username and password are the same ones you use to log into the SAIC Portal or email.
Click Connect.
*If you don't see this log in window, go to File > New Connection.
| If you don't see the option to enter a Port number, click the arrow on the bottom left hand corner of the window. |  |
Once you're connected, you should see an upload and a download folder.
Your files go in the upload folder.
The download folder is for us to give you files (like a template or instructions) if necessary.
| Open the upload folder and click Put. |  |
Find your file and click Put.
IMPORTANT: Only select actual files. DO NOT try to upload whole folders; it won't work.
Do not disconnect until you see the message "Transfer of YourFileName.tif complete."
Congratulations! You have successfully uploaded a file using an FTP client!
Barring any error messages, your file is now on our FTP server. However if you go back into your upload folder you will not see your file. Trust us, its there.
Don't forget to email us with the Online Order Form and information about the job!
