Introduction

You should upload your video to our FTP server:

• Host: photoupload.fsf.org
• Username: anonymous
• Port: 21
• Folder: upload-here

• Troubleshoot: if the connection fails the first attempt, please check the host name is exactly as described above, not including "ftp" or any additional text.*

There are many FTP programs, the easiest we know if is Filezilla. Here are instructions for that.

Installation: Install Filezilla. If you are using Trisquel GNU/Linux, you can install with "apt-get install filezilla". Otherwise, you can download the client from here: FileZilla.

Connecting

• Open Filezilla
• In the "host" field near the top of the window, enter "photoupload.fsf.org"
• Click "Quickconnect"
• When the window that says that the host key is unknown, select the check box next to "Always trust this host", then click OK

You should now be connected. Drag and drop video file you want to upload from the left hand file tree into the upload-here folder in the right side pane.

When you are done uploading

• Confirm your submission with speaker release by emailing the following to campaigns@fsf.org:
