You can specify any name for the server.

4. Specify the server location. The location can be one of the following:

◦ FTP server—Type the address of the FTP server.

◦ Windchill server—Type the address of the Windchill server. Optionally, you can also specify the port number along with the address. For example:

ptc.windchill.com:8000/Windchill

The http:// prefix is added after you type an Internet address. You can obtain the correct address of your Windchill server from your Windchill Systems Administrator.
