### Publishing Sites Through FTP

To publish Web site through FTP:

1. Connect to the server with an FTP client program, using FTP account credentials that you specified during setup of hosting account or obtained from your provider. The FTP address should be ftp://your-domain-name.com, where your-domain-name.com is your site's Internet address.

   Enable the passive mode if you are behind a firewall.

2. Upload files and directories that should be accessible through HTTP protocol to the `httpdocs` directory, and files/directories that should be transferred securely over SSL protocol to the `httpsdocs` directory.
3. Place your CGI scripts into the `cgi-bin` directory.
4. Close your FTP session.
