I need upload basics

| Please don't laugh. Help fill in the form to upload files upon saving.
Testing server works fine. testing "remote site" gives me: "an FTP error
occured. Cannot make connection to host. The remote host cannot be found"
The host says to put / for the "host directory"
To log in their "site manager" I use a name but they ask to use a member
number for login. I tried both.
Any ideas?
Thanks

what is your ftp address? If the error message is:
"...The remote host cannot be found"
it means this address is wrong.

| My FTP address is: http://freeftp.bravehost.com
Why would "testing server" work and not "remote info"? What about :
Use passive FTP
Use firewall
Use SSH encrypted login?:confused;
Thank you,

did you try:
freeftp.bravehost.com
yoursite.bravehost.com
and above all, what did bravehost tell you to use?

what did you put in the 'testing server' box? didn't you put a local address?
Testing server is usually used to test dynamic sites locally (on your computer). Are you doing
something different?
What about :

who knows? bravenet does, and they should have sent you all this info when you applied for an
account with them.

Are you certain?
This sounds like a generic address rather than a specific FTP address for
your website.
Double check this with Bravehost.
