Does anyone hear access their site using Dreamweaver? We are having trouble connecting via ftp through Dreamweaver. I'm able to upload my files using the HHControl Panel, but I'd prefer to stick with working with DW.

In the Remote Site setup it asks for:

FTP Host
Host Directory
Login
Password

I have been leaving the Host Directory blank as I've never used that with other hosts. So, is there something besides "domain/var/www/html" that goes into FTP Host? I've tried many different scenarios and none of them work. The error we get is "The remote host cannot be found."

Thanks in advance!

FTP Host (Is just the Domain Name like joe.com or IP Address of your account)
Host Directory (/var/www/html)
Login ( your username or if it is shared IP Address Account username%domainname)
Password (password for that user)

Example:

FTP Host : example.com
Host Directory : /var/www/html
Username : exampleuser
Password : mypassword
