How to connect your Game Server to SFTP

Host: sftp://GAME-UK-1.realms.host:7502

Username: nastrix.e6339xxxx

Password: The password of your game panel login

To utilize SFTP, it’s essential to have either FileZilla or WinSCP installed on your local machine. We lean towards recommending WinSCP, as FileZilla has been known to corrupt some encrypted files for specific games.

To connect, simply paste your Host, Username, and Password details. Note that the server port is embedded in the host string, so you can leave the port field blank during connection; it will auto-populate.

Upon establishing a connection, you’ll gain access to your server files, enabling you to upload all necessary components for your Game Servers. With this knowledge, you’re now equipped to connect your game server via SFTP.
