   That doesn’t work for me, strangely it just opens Firefox and tries the url ‘ftp://domainname.co.uk’ which then says it cannot connect – how come it opens firefox?

     You probably have Firefox set as the application to handle FTP. I think Firefox might do that with a standard install.

     Right. You need a different program to do that. See episode 228 for an example.
