a web server, is Local/Network. If you aren't sure what to select, ask the
server's system administrator.
For more information, click Help in the dialog box.

Enter the host name of the server (such as ftp.macromedia.com).
In the Host directory text box, enter the path on the server from the
FTP root folder to the remote site's root folder (cafe_townsend). If
you're not sure of the path, consult your system administrator.
In many cases, this text box should be left blank.
Enter your user name and password in the appropriate text boxes.

option.
Click Test to test your connection.
If the connection is unsuccessful, consult your system
