go to www.etree.org

You will find all kinds of instructions for all kinds of downloads,(SHN, BitTorrent, FLAC) as well as a plethora of live shows to download.

Thor, give us more info.

Do you want to download?

Do you need to upload?

Do you have your own hosted space that you're trying to upload to?

Ok.

I bought a websight name.

I bought some hosting from Dyanahost.

I informed the company who I got my domain name from to turn my sight towards their two DNAS servers, now I want to put up my test web page.

WEBSIGHTS AND DNAS SERVERS? Out of my league...

Well, Thor.... for starters, you've got a webSITE and DNS, not DNAs. [Smile]

If you're using Dreamweaver to create your webpages, there's a built-in FTP client that you can use to upload your pages. It's been too long for me to walk you through it from memory, but basically you just need to find the screen where you can enter your username, password, and the address of the server you have access to. Badabing, badabang.

Dyanahost (sp?) should have given you an IP address for your site and an account name/password. You'll need an FTP program like WS_FTP or CuteFTP. You set up a listing in either of those programs with your account information, and then use them to connect to your website directory.

Once you're there you click on files on your hard drive and copy them over to your website. As mentioned, some web editors have this functionality built in and have help files to walk you through it.

I suggest downloading Filezilla { http://filezilla.sf.net ) and using that for ftp, you type in the host name for the ftp host (most likely your domain name) and the user/pass that your webhost gave you, everything after that is pretty much drag and drop.
