Accessing files/directories @ Dreamhost

#1

I am taking over a Dreamhost account and I need to see why the html does not open the site. I have the site owner P/w & login but I do not know how to navigate around and see the files like index.html.

I tried most of the places like Manage Domains, etc.

I have a working joomla site on my PC and use localhost with XAMPP to view it. Would it be better just to FTP it? If so, which files do I edit first so they work at Dreamhost? TIA, Leroy

In Manage Domains, there’s a WebFTP link. That’ll really help you as you get up to speed. Once you FTP in, you’ll see a Mail directory, a Logs directory, and then your domain directory (example.com) where all of your files belong.
