Domain hosting

[hollypop]

At work we have 2 websites. One is hosted by MSO.net and the other we can't find out who hosts it.

Does anyone know how I can find this out?

Thanks

ping it to get the ip address and then do a whois ip lookup at dnsstuff.com

Pop the name(s) of the sites here and one of our resident gurus will tell you.

www.webhosting.info

www.domainwhitepages.com

chuck either IP or URL in either of these

[hollypop]

Ah ok thats a start!

The next problem I have is how do I edit the pages? I can get into one part of the site to edit some reports we have on there but I cannot edit the main body of text. ARGH damn websites!

[Plotloss]

You need to get FTP access to the site so you can edit things...

If you didnt know who hosted it I'm guessing that you dont have login details either?

[hollypop]

No i'm none the wiser. It might just have to stay 2 years out of date!

I seem to have found the ftp details but I have no idea what to do with them.

I have a 10 didgt number and a password. Blimey this is hard work

You need an FTP client.

Google for Filezilla and download it.

Then in the host type in the web address of the website, in username the 10 digit number and in password the password and hit connect.
