In Dreamweaver you will click on Site, then New Site (Figure 1).

At the top of the window that opens there are 2 tabs. Go ahead and select the advanced tab, since that will get you on your way the fastest. You will then see Local Info, which designates what you want to call the connection, the URL for your website, and the location on your computer where you are designing the site (see Figure 2).

Click on Remote Info in the column on the left to configure FTP access to your website. You will need to set the access to FTP then set the FTP Host to your domain name or IP address. There are slight differences when connecting to a Unix server or to a Windows server (Figure 4).

After configuring the Remote Info, click OK, then click Done on the "Edit Sites" window.
