switch user password frontpage 2003

Hi - I am working on two websites in FP 2003 and am trying to publish one,
but FP defaults to the wrong username/password (so I would upload to the
wrong location). WHERE in FP 2003 can I reset permissions to enter the
correct username/password? Looks like it used to be in Tools/Permissions but
not in 2003... THANKS.

Don't use the Publish button
(which defaults to the last remote web published to)
Use the Remote Web Site View - Remote web site properties

Thanks.... Hmmm, when i do that it still defaults to the wrong web (which
happens to be on the same server). Any other ideas?

True, but when you select File Menu | Publish Web / Site, you can enter the correct location, which
you can't when you use the Publish button.

How do you have the site set up on your local machine, as separate folders?

How are you publishing to the live/remote server (path)?

Hi - Thanks, got distracted with the holiday :) I am publishing to the same
remote server. When I go into site properties as you suggest I do not see
anywhere to change the username/password. I have the local files in two
different places on my PC. Anyway, I just can't figure out how to get to her
remote files, not mine! Very frustrating.....

Thanks for any suggestions.

Once you enter the destination (as http://www.somnesite.com/) in remote site properties you will get as login box as FP tries to
connect
