To setup FrontPage 2003 with our system all you have to do is setup the FTP transfer settings, this way you don't have to use FrontPage extensions which will break things and is not a good way to transfer files to us, anyways her is how you setup FrontPage 2003 with FTP transfering.

once you have FrontPage 2003 open you will need to go to "view" then to "Remote Web Site" if  "Remote Web Site" is grayed out that means that you either have not saved your website correctly or you have not yet created one.
