Here are some quick questions.

when we type our company domain name, flexcorp.com, our ip address is replaced in the
address line so that it reads 215.170.39.29/index.htm

how do I setup a company FTP site, or does my isp have to do that?

You can set up your own FTP site, you just have to let the ISP know what (public) address it is on so that they can add it to their public DNS server (if you are not running your own public DNS server).

Hope that helps -

Point value changed by question poster.

I just had my isp setup a ftp site for us to access using our domain name. We don't house the data so that means we don't have as much responsibility, but also not as much control as I would like.

Thanks
