Uploading Files with FTP:

The first thing you will need before uploading files to your account is a good ftp client.

Once you have learned more about FTP clients and how to connect to your account, the following is what you need to do to start uploading your website.

Using FTP clients:

When you open your FTP software you will see a screen similar to the one below.

Click NEW. You will get a blank screen to setup and use as your connection to your site.

Enter the following information:

Profile Name: You can enter anything here. This is just used by the FTP software to store and save your configuration.

Host Name: Enter username.e-access.com.au

Host Type: Set it to Automatic Detect

User ID: Enter your username provided by E-Access

Password: Enter the password for the user. (The password is case-sensitive!). Check the "save password" box if you don't want to have to keep entering your password every time.

Click OK. Your FTP Software should now login to your site.

Note: You should name your main (home) page 'index.htm' or index.html' (all
lowercase) file names on UNIX machines are case-sensitive, make sure that
your links and filenames match exactly.
