Step
1: Launching Netscape
Netscape
installs a program group in "Programs" under
the Windows 95 START button called Netscape
Communicator. In the group there are a number of
applications, one of which is Netscape Navigator,
sometimes called Netscape Communicator. The icon
will look similar to one of the ones above. Simply click
on the icon to launch the program.
STEP
2: Connecting to Walnut Circle Press's FTP
Once Netscape is running, the user needs to type in the address of our FTP site. The address is ftp://walnut:circle@ftp.walnutcirclepress.com. It is not case sensitive. The user would type the address
into the box labeled "Location" and press ENTER.
STEP
3. Uploading Files.
The
file upload process is very easy, requiring just a few
mouse clicks. At the Netscape pull-down menu, click "File."
Scroll down to "Upload File" and click
the mouse.
Netscape
will display a dialog box entitled "File Upload".
From this box, the user tells Netscape which file to send
(only 1 file can be sent at a time.)
The
user must know in which folder or directory their
file is stored, in either locally or on a network drive,
in order to transfer it. For locating documents on disk,
refer to your Windows 95/98 users manual. Once the file
is located, simply click the file and click the Open button.
A status indicator may pop-up and display the progress
of the transfer depending on the speed of your connection.
For smaller files, it may merely flash across the screen.
NOTE:
Existing files may not be overwritten! If there
is a file that has the same name as the one being sent
the user MUST rename the file first and then transfer
it!
Upon
successful transfer, the user can scroll through the file
listing to verify their file was sent successfully.
STEP
4: Logging Off
To
logoff, simply close Netscape or go to another website
or FTP location.
