Probly Pretty Basic

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Dec 06.2005

I’ve got a problem that maybe pretty basic to some of you, but its got me stuck. I’ve built a website and have the domain name already but I don’t know how to go about setting up the FTP Site for the domain name so I can just put my files and finally get it up. I got the domain name through registerfly if that helps any. How do I go about setting this up? Any and all help will be appreciated. Thank you.

@FangDec 06.2005 — Do you have a host for the domain?

@DunndealauthorDec 06.2005 — To be perfectly honest I'm not sure. We host a few other websites but those were set up before i came on, is there any way I can check where/what their host is? I'm sorry if all of this sounds dumb but I'm extremely green when it comes to this and I'm basicly OJTing the whole project. Thank you for helping.

If you have nothing then enter the domain name (whatever.com) in [URL=http://www.whois.net/]WHOIS lookup[/URL], see if any names there ring a bell.

@DunndealauthorDec 06.2005 — After Some searching I believe its enom.com but thts just what I've gotten from a whois lookup. Is this the correct info or am I just making myself look dumber?

@DunndealauthorDec 06.2005 — or would this have more to do with my Name servers?

@FangDec 06.2005 — There are probably the company hosting the domain. To get any information from them you need your customer number.

@DunndealauthorDec 06.2005 — SOrry, but more noob ?s. What type of information would I be looking for from them to setup an FTP site for the domain? Your help so far has been excellent and I really really appreciate this.

@FangDec 06.2005 — Login name and Password for the FTP and Control panel, and probably imformation on Mail, Frontpage and other stuff depending on the type of hosting.

If they are the host then it's all set up already; find the info and your up and running ?
