Reload this site, gonna type more for your client setup!
Okey, Now are we going to install the Client to your "non-Dedicated server" Like your gaming computer(?)
I recommend WinSCP because... It's the easiest software to use
Let's get going:
1)Visit this download link:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/winscp/winscp429.zip?download or (once again, if you don't trust this:
http://winscp.net/eng/download.php - and download the Portable executables
2) This software do not need an installation (I gotta <3 it
) - Create a shortcut from the winscp.exe file to the deskop (or whatever you want it)
3) Start the software, and press the button: New.
First of all here: CHANGE File protocol: "SFTP" to "FTP"
Hostname: (Your dedicated server ip or dns)
Port Number: 21
Username: (your user you created in Xlight)
Password: (The same password you have for the user)
Make sure that the encryption is: No Encryption (not sure how to setup it yet
)
Now press Save...
and the Login!
There you go! you got a fully working FTP client and FTP Server!
EDIT:
If you are trying to connect to your dedicated server outside of your network, then you have configure the Xlight server some more, which is a bit more advnaced
