Website Works on FTP Program, but not My Network Places?

[Guest]

I have a website, Http://www.GWAFed.net

I had 2 domains, both with web hosting. NAWWE.com and WNDaily.org.

I then bought a new domain, GWAFed.net

I put the hosting from WNDaily (my secondary site) on NAWWE, and put the
hosting that was on NAWWE (my main site) onto GWAFed.net (our new domain)

Ever since, I can't edit the site with Front Page.

I use SmartFTP, and can access the site with my username/password.

I go to My Network Places, go to add GWAFed.net like I always have, and it
said something about it not existing.

I went to the Control Panel at GoDaddy.com, and reinstalled Front Page
Server Extensions.

Now when I go to My Network Places, I go to add GWAFed.net like usual, and
it now asks me for the username/password. I type the username/password for
the web hosting, and it doesnt work. I click ok, and the Connect To: window
that asks for my username/password quickly pops back-up.

Keep in mind, this is the same username/password that i use for SmartFTP
which DOES work.

Any help?

This really is more of a Front Page issue than a networking issue.
Can you open the remote site directly with Front Page from the file
menu? For more assistance, try the Front Page newsgroup
microsoft.public.frontpage.client

Hi
If the server is Linux appliance based it is tricky to use Front Page.
You have to use Frontpage as on line editor only, and be careful in using
ftp.
If you use ftp the info. in the Server's FrontPage Extensions directories
does not get updated.
I do not know how you transferred the sites but my guess would be the
transfer created conflicts.
Start FrontPage pull down the open site and do not choose a site. Type
manually into the Site name box http://www.GWAFed.net and give it another
try.
Otherwise, try GoDaddy tech. support might be that they can offer a
solution.
