Publishing to Web Problems

[Brent]

I am having problems publishing a site that I once published using Publisher
'98 and now using 2003.

I have followed the following link
(http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/Pub0009/LPMArticle.asp?ID=324) to a T
and still get the same error message each time.

I have also seen a few subjects in discussion groups about this issue and
still have not been able to resolve the problem I'm having.

When I get to the point of opening the FTP site I receive the following
error message:
"Cannont connect to the FTP server on the computer named 'servername.com'."
Then when I click on Show Help I receive the following message:
"This error message is usually associated with an attempt to access an FTP
(File Transfer Protocol) web site through a fire wall/proxy server and the
proxy settings are not set correctly to gain access.
To avoid this error message, change the FTP proxy settings to allow access
to the site."
I am trying to publish to a web site under my own domain through Yahoo. I
have disabled the fire wall (or so I thought) and do not know how or if I am
able to "change the FTP proxy settings".

Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is growing more and more
frustrating every day!

THANKS!

There are numerous possibilities in these cases, so I wrote a
trouble-shooting article on the topic, you'll find it at

work thru that article.

I had this ame problem, I eventually had to use HTTP protocol instead of FTP
to upload my site and it worked.
