Connective existing site to Dreamweaver

Can anyone help me access our site via Dreamweaver? Sonic doesn't support this legacy product, and I'm trying to make simple edits with Dreamweaver. I'm guessing that I'm not entering the right root directory.

Hi,

I took a look at your account, and it looks like you have your site (cfckids.org) set up with Value Hosting on Sonic's side. Per our Web Publishing FAQ, you'll need to use FTP to access the files on Sonic's servers. Since you are using Dreamweaver, you will need to consult either the built-in or online help on how to set up the connection properties for your Site. (A generic guide provided by Adobe, the publisher of Dreamweaver, can be found here.)

For the connection properties, you will need to use something like the following:
---
Server Name: cfckids.org (Sonic)
Connect using: FTP
FTP Address: ftp.sonic.net
Username: cfckids
Password: (your password for cfckids@sonic.net)
Root directory: /home/WWW_pages/cfckids/cfckids.org/
Web URL: http://www.cfckids.org/
