Connecting to a FTP server from a Mac

If you just want to connect to an FTP server via mac  and you don’t want a robust client, you can use the Finder.

Go to Finder >Go>Connect To Server… Next type this in the input box ftp://ftp.<yoursite>.com.

If your server requires authentication, you can pass in your password and username by typing the following:

ftp://<username>:<password>@ftp.<yoursite>.com.

This will allow you to access your files on a remote host or server.
