Hi,

I have some really dumb questions about how to get my Web site online. I'm using FTP Commander, so I need to know the FTP name and the server name; and, alas, I cannot remember my own user name and password. How can I find out all of those things? Also, I want to create a directory structure, which is basically a home directory with a number of subdirectories within it. Should I create these directories within the WWW folder on the server, and then will my relative paths work? Thanks,

Peter

Hello Peter,

Assuming this is a FutureQuest hosted site than the following would apply...

FTP Hostname: ftp.example.com (replacing example.com with your actual domain name and extension)

If you have lost your username and password for a FutureQuest hosted account send an Email to Service@FutureQuest.net from the primary email address listed on the account indicating what you need and what domain it is in regards to.

Regarding the directory structure, you would create any files and directories that you want accessible via the web within your /www directory and depending on how it is created and how you intend them to be viewed you should be able to use absolute or relative links if you wished.
