Helpful tute. I was struggling with how to tell cyberduck what to upload - I wouldn't have thought of dragging from the finder - I'm such a command line addict!

Thanks guys!

Hello,
I am trying to access my works Intranet through Cyberduck and I am not sure exactly how to do this.
I will explain how I do it on Putty, through the IBM side of my Mac and maybe you can help me. Thanks.
In Putty .. I go to Sessions (at the top left scroll bar) I enter in the Host Name Field (the host computer) then under Port I enter the port number.
Then I go to Connection SSH - Tunnels (at the bottom left scroll bar). In the Source Port Field I enter the Port I am using.
In the Destination field I enter another name .com:80.
This lets me log into my works intranet and use the tools their I need to.
Thanks, in advance.
7slocal.

I'm not sure that cyberduck supports ssh tunnelling, but you could try this: http://www.trembl.org/codec/date/2011/02/

@bower1981: Looks to me like you want to upload the contents of your MuseExport folder to your document root (assuming '/' is your document root - check with your hosting company if you're unsure).

Great tutorial. Thanks a lot.

I have a specific problem I can't find an answer to.

I imported all my sites (bookmarks) from Filezilla.

I have had to change my ftp password on one of my sites.

I can't see how to change the password on Cyberduck. The program opens the site. Will I be able to upload files?

I have tried deleting the site (bookmark). That works. When I try to do a new bookmark, it immediately reinstalls the bookmark I just deleted. ??????

thanks for any help on this.

@richardstephens: Cyberduck stores passwords in your Mac OS X keychain, not in the app itself. Run /Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access and look for your bookmark/server name in the Name column. Double-click it, then enable the "Show password" checkbox and type your new password. Click Save Changes.

Hi Matt.
Thanks a million for the help.
I never would have figured that out for myself.
Learned something new today!

Hi,

Thanks for uploading such useful information.
I have installed Cyberduck today and followed the steps upto connecting to the server which I did successfully.

Now in your screenshot there should be a home directory displayed, in my case it is just a blank table.

When I log-in to C Panel> File Manager i can see the cgi directory but not on cyberduck window.

I was hoping to install wordpress after this step but I am stuck on this issue.

Any help would be useful. Thanks

@blog99: Hard to know without seeing your exact setup. Usually your FTP home directory contains your website folder (document root). If it doesn't then I suggest contacting your hosting provider's support. It sounds like your FTP home directory isn't being set correctly.

Thanks Matt.
I spoke to support but they are unable to figure out the issue and are just providing me with tutorials, which I have gone thru all and double checked but cannot seem to find the issue.

Would it be possible to show you the c panel, if not I will just reconfigure the whole thing again and see if that works.

Thanks again for your help

@blog99: I don't do web hosting consultancy I'm afraid! Your support really should be able to help you with this kind of thing, if they know what they're doing.

If you're running cPanel then this might help:
