Folders accessible through FTP
You can access the same folders on your MeeBox through FTP as you can through
Windows networking. However, the way they are organized looks a little different. When
you use Windows networking (that is, when you access the network location \\meebox),
you see the various shared and private folders all in one place. But when you use FTP,
most of the shares—inlcuding all private folders and the public shared folder—are shown
as subfolders of the folder ide3. At the same level as ide3 are the folders ide4 (if you have
a second internal hard drive installed) and usb1 and usb2 (if you have USB devices
attached).
Another difference between FTP and Windows networking is that when you use FTP,
private folders other than your own are hidden.
There is one more difference: when you use FTP, you can see certain folders in ide3 that
are not visible when you use Windows networking. The most important of these is htdocs,
which is the folder that contains all the web pages used by your MeeBox’s built-in web

server. (See Setting up a website, below.)
Below is a representation of the default directory structure that is visible to user ―admin‖
through FTP.
