To upload your Web sites contents into your Web space, you will need a FTP program. FTP program allows you to Upload/Download your contents to the Web server.

The FTP software looks and works much the same as Windows Explorer. The software provides a link between the files on your computer and your webspace. It can be used to both load files to the webspace and delete any files from webspace. There are many FTP programs available on the Web.

For this tutorial we are using the very popular FTP program called CuteFTP. CuteFTP can be downloaded free from http://www.cuteftp.com/download/cuteftp.shtml

Once you have downloaded and installed CuteFTP, just follow the steps below to set it up.

Before you can set up FTP you will need this required information: Host Name, User Name, User Password.

Label for site: This is just profile name, you could put anything here.

FTP Host Address: Enter our ftp Domain name i.e ftp.aztecinternet.net

FTP site User Name: Enter your User Name.

FTP site Password: Enter your password here.

Login type: Select Normal

Once you have filled all the above details, click Connect, this will display the directory structure on your virtual server on the right hand side, and your local machine directory structure on the left as show below.


Now you can upload/download your contents by Drag-n-Drop. Please note: Upload all the HTML fils as ASCII, and Images as Binary.

Changing permissions on a file

This will be required if you ever wish to run CGI scripts or use ServerSide Includes. If this does not mean anything to you, then it is unlikely you will need this.

Right click on the file you want to change permission, this will bring up the Screen below.

From the list click on CHMOD, this will bring another screen.

Now you can change the permission of the file.
