Troubleshoot the remote folder setup The following list provides information on common problems you may encounter in setting up a remote folder, and how to resolve them: • The Dreamweaver FTP implementation might not work properly with certain proxy servers, multilevel firewalls, and other forms of indirect server access. If you encounter problems with FTP access, ask your local system administrator for help. • For a Dreamweaver FTP implementation, you must connect to the remote system's root folder. Be sure to indicate the remote system's root folder as the host directory. If you've specified the host directory using a single slash (/), you might need to specify a relative path from the directory you are connecting to and the remote root folder. For example, if the remote root folder is a higher level directory, you may need to specify a ../../ for the host directory. • Use underscores in place of spaces, and avoid special characters in file and folder names wherever possible. Colons, slashes, periods, and apostrophes in file or folder names can prevent Dreamweaver from creating a site map. September 4, 2007
