1) I first load the TestWeb I want to publish into Frontpage from the local
file system, and check that it all looks OK.

2) I then select 'Publish Web' from the File Menu

3) At the location I put in 'http://Bigred/KMTestWeb1' where Bigred is the
name of the computer on my network where I have installed IIS which is
running and KMTestWeb1 is the name of the Subweb I created to have put a
test web on.

4) I make sure that 'Publish all pages' is selected

5) I click on 'Publish'

6) I see the progress bar growing and brief messages about the processeing
done and then the message 'Web site published sucessfully' comes up with
'click here to veiw your published web site'.

7) I click on the link and I can see the name of the directory 'bigred -
/KMTestWeb1/' and the folders '_private' and 'images'. No files are visible
and the folder images is empty (the folder images on my Frontpage web has
the graphics as you would expect)

8) Checking the folder on the IIS server machine (BigRed) just shows the
server extention files but no web content.
