21 Feb 10 Direct Download Manager
The Direct Download Manager is another feature exclusive to the Gossimer Control Panel. It helps you save several hours of your valuable time by allowing you to download files to your web space directly from another server via a HTTP URL or FTP URL.
If you need to transfer large files to your web space that are already available on some other server, then you would typically have to download these files locally to your desktop and re-upload them. All of this could take up quite some time depending on the file size and your Internet connection speed. However, using the server-to-server transfer facility provided by the Direct Download Manager, you can utilize the server’s high speed connection to directly download large files. So, even if you are connected to the Internet via a dial-up connection, file transfers will occur at the very high speeds.
This feature is most useful when you are transferring your Website data from your previous Web Hosting provider, as you could just zip up your whole website and instead of downloading it locally to your desktop, directly download it on the server and unzip it there.
Using the Direct Download Manager
Follow the process mentioned below to download files using the direct download manager:
1. Login to your Control Panel and search for the domain name for which you have purchased this hosting package.
2. In the search results view, click on the domain name. This will take you to the order details view.
3. Click on Manage Web Hosting Service in the lower toolbar.
4. In the Website Management interface pop-up that follows, go to Manage Website -> Additional Tools -> Direct Download Manager.
5. Here, provide the following details
- The remote URL – i.e., the location of the file that you wish to download
- Destination – the directory to which you wish to send the downloaded file
6. Click on Download Now. This would download the file to the location you have specified.
