Neither one.

When your package is setup you will have 3 folders.
cgi-bin>scripts
htdocs>viewable files (really most everything)
logs>log files

these folders do not always appear as oon as you have set up an account, they may take a while to "get in place" and once there you need to put your files in htdocs

thanks. It's been a few hours and I still only have the two folders. Is this typical? Should I show patience or seek help?

Show a little patience. It will happen any minute.

What's your domain name? When admin sees this post he will check it out.
