Please note that older FileZilla versions used ~/.filezilla/trustedcerts.xml.įTPS (FTP over TLS) is served up in two incompatible modes. In order to remove a saved certificate rename or modify the file ~/.config/filezilla/trustedcerts.xml. In order to remove a saved certificate, navigate to %APPDATA%\FileZilla and delete, rename or modify the trustedcerts.xml file. This file should not be confused with any certificates you have in use if you use FileZilla as a server as well. The file trustedcerts.xml contains certificates for secure websites that you have told your FileZilla client to trust connections to. In FileZilla client this means prefixing the host with "FTPES://" for "explicit" FTPS, or "FTPS://" for the legacy "implicit" FTPS. If PROT P is enforced, PROT C is rejected.Īlso see FTPS using Explicit TLS howto (Server).įor a client to connect to a server using TLS, then the host for that connection needs to be set to FTPS. If PROT P isn't enforced, client could send PROT C and transfer files unencrypted. Communication with the server is always encrypted if you use FTP over TLS.Ĭommunication encrypted: PROT C, Communication+Data encrypted: PROT P.


Once you have generated the certificate, and chosen where to save it, FileZilla will auto fill in the private key file, and the certificate file fields to point to the generated certificate.Īt this point, you can either choose to allow FTP over TLS if the user opts, or you can force them to always use FTP over TLS, and not allow them to connect if they do not use it. The two digit country code can be found by searching the web (United States is just US - it can be confusing that two digit can be two letters, and not necessarily two numbers only). Choose FTP over TLS settings, and choose to generate a new certificate. Open the admin interface, and go to settings.
