WS_FTP:
Open WS_FTP through the "Start" menu by finding the "WS_FTP" folder and opening the main program. WS_FTP will open to the "Session Properties" window, which is where you'll start from. Click "New" to begin working with your own site.

You can give any name you wish to the "Profile Name." Give your site a name (such as your Eden user name, which is how your site is identified with a URL), and pick a local folder on your hard drive to associate with your server space (a brand new, empty folder is best).

Under "Host Name/Address," enter:

ftp.eden.rutgers.edu

"Host Type" is fine as "Automatic Detect." Enter in your Eden login for "User ID," and your Eden password for "Password." Click "OK" and you will be connected to your Eden space.

Once you are connected, the remote files will be listed on the right, while your local files will be on the left. To create your "public_html" file, click over into the remote (right) side, and click the "MkDir" ("Make Directory") button. A window will appear asking you for the name of your new directory. Name this folder "public_html" (note the underscore between the two words; the underscore can be attained by holding "shift" and pressing the dash or minus button directly to the right of the number zero).

You are now free to use "public_html" directory as your main folder within your Eden storage space. Any files within "public_html" can be access at the following URL, where "username" is your Eden login:

http://www.eden.rutgers.edu/~username
