Connecting to UTS with Dreamweaver

You can connect to the UTS server via the Dreamweaver site manager tools. You can enter the information when you create a site or you can change the information when you edit an existing site.

Once you have set up the UTS connection information, you will be able to connect to your server from within your Site Window and view the files on your local machine and the files on the server at the same time.
