| How to publish your site with FrontPage | Article ID:159 |
Please note this very important item... if you intend to use FrontPage for your site, you should never publish to your site with FTP. Publishing to your site with an FTP client can result in corruption of the FrontPageServerExtensions necessary for FrontPage to work properly. FrontPage is unique in the way it publishes, and one aspect of this is that it requires the use of the domain name during publishing. For instance, if your domain name is mydomain.com and it's on our server at an IP address of 66.66.66.66, if you were publishing with FTP, you could configure a standard FTP client to publish to the IP address, 66.66.66.66. But you can't do this with FrontPage.. it requires the use of that domain name as the "publishing destination" due to the nature of certain FrontPage functionaties. This is important becuase it means you must either:
Moving forward, we'll assume DNS has replicated or you've edited your hosts file to ensure your domain is properly resolving to our servers. You'll need your FTP/FrontPage username and password in order to publish your site to our servers with FrontPage... this is available in your Welcome Email, and on the MyAccount pages under Plesk/FTP passwords if you can't find your Welcome Email.
