Step 1:
Open your FTP program and make sure you are connected to Dandy Connections. Some FTP programs automatically connect when they are opened. In Windows 95 or 98, your FTP program can be opened by going to your Start Button, choosing Run, and typing "ftp" without the quotes, then clicking OK.

Step 2:
At the prompt, type open members.dandy.net

Step 3:
At the login prompt, type in your e-mail name, hit enter (or return) and then when prompted, type your password.

Step 4:
At the next prompt, type in cd public_html. This will change the directory to your "public_html" directory.

Step 5:
At the prompt, type lcd \directory where "directory" is the name of the directory or folder in which the file you wish to transfer is located. For example, if you had the file "index.html" in the directory "webstuff" and "webstuff" was in the folder "docs", you would type lcd \docs\webstuff The "lcd" command locally changes the directory or changes the directory on your computer where the FTP program will look for the file you wish to transfer.

Step 6:
Now type put index.html. This will put your file into your "public_html" directory on the mail.dandy.net server.

Step 7:
You should see a message telling you that the file transfer was successful. If it wasn't, try typing bin and hitting the return or enter key and then try putting the file again.

Step 8:
If you would like to send the entire contents of a folder on your local directory, you can type the command mput. This will put all the files from your specified local directory onto the server.

Step 9:
Once your file has been transferred, you will be able to view it on the World Wide Web at http://members.dandy.net/~your_e-mail_name.
