INTRODUCTION
This helpsheet is designed to help you transfer Webpages to the College of ARHU Webserver, also known as Calliope, using the Mac OsX based secure FTP utility Fugu.

What is FTP?
FTP, or file transfer protocol, enables two computers to talk to each other so that you can copy files from one computer on the other. The computer you are sitting in front of when you perform the transfer is the 'Local System,' and the computer your local system is talking to is the 'Remote System.'

(from local system to remote system- PUT) (from remote system to local system- GET)

THE BIG PICTURE
Create or edit files using whatever development tool you like, Netscape Composer or Dreamweaver for example. Save them to your "local system" which might be your office machine, home machine, laptop or zip drive on a shared computer. You can put all your webpages and embedded image files in one directory and transfer the whole directory to calliope. If you already have files on calliope you will follow these steps:

1. Connect your local computer to calliope via FTP.
2. Download existing files from calliope to your local system.
3. Make edits using your preferred development tool, Netscape Composer or Dreamweaver for example.
4. Upload changed files to calliope via FTP.

If you do not currently have files on calliope then you will skip step 2.

REMEMBER THE FOLLOWING WHEN SAVING Web FILES

1. Web documents must end with .htm or .html. Just pick one and use it consistently.
2. Keep your file names short but descriptive. For example, FRN486syllabus.htm or jbresume.html.
3. No spaces or special characters in the file names. You can use _ (underscore) or - (dash). Do not use / or \ (slashes).
