Uploading with FTP:
FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. FTP client software allows you to transfer files between your hard drive and a remote server. For instance, you could put your personal home page up on the Web by transferring files from your hard drive to a Web server, or you can download programs from your favorite shareware site -- fast.
Ever wonder what 'http' stands for in all of the Web sites you access with your Web browser? Hypertext Transfer
Protocol is how your browser transfers files from remote web servers to graphically display web content on your
monitor. Although HTTP does a good job of downloading HTML files and the small bitmaps displayed within them, it was
never designed to transfer large files. However, with FTP, you can download large files and resume transfer after
interruptions, where you left off, saving time and aggravation.
FTP Settings:
- Hostname: [ www.yourdomain.com or your ip address ]
