What is the easiest way to upload my site via FTP?
The easiest way to upload your pages via FTP, is to simply use your browser.
If you are using Internet Explorer 5 or later you can use it as an FTP program.
You need to enter the URL of your domain name in the browsers address window
in the following form:

ftp://ftp.yourdomain.com

where yourdomain is YOUR actual domain name.

You will then be prompted to enter your username and password, as originally
sent to you in your "welcome letter".

You will then be logged into your root web directory, where you can either drag
and drop your web pages, or cut and paste them into the browser window.
Your default or home page, should be named index.html or index.html

How do I use the anonymous ftp site?
Your anonymous ftp site is completely different from your web site.

When people ftp to your domain anonymously, they will see the following
directories:

bin/ dev/ etc/ incoming/ lib/ pub/

"pub" is where you should put all your anonymously accessible files.
"incoming" is for the anonymous users to upload files.
For security the following applies


Only the incoming directory can be written to anonymously
Subdirectories are not creatable
The incoming directory is not readable by people dropping files there
You are responsible for any "pirated" software uploaded by the anonymous users. The anonymous ftp sites will be periodically monitored for any abuses.
You may ignore the other directories.
