Post Reply? At the moment I run mywebsite.com via DH shared hosting. I make video so I use the ftp space a lot - at the moment I have to send people a link like this - ftp://orangebang.dreamhost.com and give them the username & password, or ftp://username:password@orangebang.dreamhost.com which sometimes doesn’t work - plus I think it looks a bit unprofessional to have this orangebang thing cropping up in the address. It would be great if I could map something like ftp://files.mywebsite.com to ftp://orangebang.dreamhost.com - so that people never have to see the orangebang bit. Is this possible?
