Edit: ignore this. I misread the post.

Well, what information do you need to do that and what information do you have?

Use the html GET method to get a page from your ftp server.

Well, for the web server, just point you web browser to the URL or IP address of your web server. Or use wget to download a page or file from it. ht

For the ftp server, you can either connect to it using the ftp client ("ftp <hostname>") or use a program like Filezilla.

I think you misread like I did. The OP appears to want to connect their FTP server to their webserver.. they don't want to connect to the servers.

I think the OP thanked me, so I guess that is what they were looking for. To "plug" the http into the ftp.

Okay. It did seem a little strange that someone who had just set up a web server would need help figuring out how to view pages from it.
