| When I try FP File / Open Site and thye the URL in it fails and says the
site
| cannot be located on my computer.
|
| I then tried the same but told it to look for a FTP site and typed in the
| URL. I also had to enter a password, but it failed.
|
| This must be a simple thing. What am I doing wrong?
