I have never used dreamweaver FTP, bu i have heard it is not very good for FTP. Instead, go to http://www.download.com and download Filezilla. It is an ftp program that is easy to use and has better manuals for FTP etc.

The host is the name of the server (e.g. example.test.com) and the Host Directory is the actual location where you must upload the files.
When you connect FTP, you’ll be located in your root folder on the FTP site. But most probably, you’ll need to put the files in a sub-directory (ex: htmldocspreview). THAT is your Host Directory.
Yes, the Dreamweaver FTP is confusing at first… Just watch out not to mix up the green and blue arrows (PUT and GET)…! You should normally use the BLUE one (PUT)…
