Default What should I put for Remote Path and Local Path?
I am trying to create a profile in FXP and do not know what some of the things mean which it asks for. Can someone please tell me what I am supposed to put for Remote Path and Local Path? And where do I find those?

Thanks in advance,

Greta

remote path is directory path on the server
local path is directory path on your computer

Sorry, I still don't know what those mean or where to find them!

you don't HAVE to fill these out. Just leave them blank if you don't know what you want there.

I haven't had time to work on this since the 30th. I'm now ready to tackle it and want to make sure I'm understanding everything correctly:

Where it says create new site, and site name, should I put the addy to my entire website or just the page I want to edit?

The IP address is the numbers with the dots.

Port Field. Don't have to do anything here?

User Name. This is another one I don't know what to do. Should I put the same username I use for my website or make a new user name just for this?

Password. The same one I use for my website?

Anonymous. I am going to check that.

Remote path and Local Path - don't fill in.

All help appreciated.

I have all that printed out and in front of me, but I'm concerned that I do not totally understand it and want to make sure I do so I will not make a big mess of it.

For example, in the first box where I'm to fill in the fields (the Site Manager), it asks for Site Name which I think is the addy of my web site. Then it says I will get a dialog window asking me to enter a name for my site (Site Name again). Should those both be the same thing? The URL of my website?


Thanks,

Greta

"Site Name" is just a name you want to give that 'bookmark'
you can name it whatever you want. it has absolutly no relation to URL of your website or any pages on it.
