Oh. Well I plan to build my website at home, kinda like building the
SCOUG CD, than ftp the website to my domain, how do I log in securely when
I am using ftp? Assuming the server takes FTP via SSL or FTP without SSL
capability?

I do know something though: I am not installing Microsoft FrontPage Server
Extensions. I am reading, er trying to read the documentation at
apache.org . I am not sure what to ask at this point . I
think I need to Google.

Regards.
