I assumed that I would be able to see the various directories in my home directory.

Such as ETC and BIN and others.

I am using CuteFTP and my root appears to be / and that only has CGI-BIN,HTDOCS,and
LOG.

Where is the rest? Why isn't my home directory the one I get when I connect?

That is the home dir.

If you want a etc directory, just create it.

All your html documents will be in the htdocs directory. As in index.htm

ETC will appear if you enabled Webstats from OPS (give up to 24 hours for it to be created, as when the webstats update is run once a day)

there is no BIN directory.

Load all your public files into HTDOCS

Also note that if you have just purchased your package today you will need to wait up to 72 hours or so for your real domain to propagate the net.

You should have recieved an email with your temp URL to use until this happens.

Hey thanks for the quick reply. My domain has been propagated already.

I am used to a different setup in my other website. I guess you don't have SSH either do you?

So then I will request webstats perhaps.

Any ideas on my previous post about email and pop3?

I did note that the propagation had just occurred before I started testing. My home ISP appeared to be way behind and that was locking me down.

Its there now but I am having zero luck with getting email flying.

The confustion exists between the email name(maint in my case) and the username used to login to Webmail(RHFMAINT in my case) .

Or else something is not setup right and its simple as a round rock yet I seem to be lost here.

BTW - your account here runs on the FreeBSD O/S, not Linux.

You may experience email problems until the domain is fully propagated.

Roger, unix then. Thats cool. I just dislike IIS or W2K Servers. Hope you don't change unless to linux/gnu.

No shell or telnet access available here...

also you don't have those folders because you're chrooted.
