Have you used this successfully prior to now?

If No then please check with your host that your domain address is the
proper URL for http uploading, not all hosts will use the domain address.

If Yes then open your Windows Explorer and browse to Network Places in the
left side folder tree and you should have your domain network place listed.
Click on it and see if you can connect.

If you can and you find Pub won't then you can publish locally and then just
copy the site files from your local folder to the network place with Windows
Explorer.

If you find it won't connect then delete the network place and restart your
machine.
Then redo the process in Pub when you have restarted.

If it still fails then contact your host and tell them you are unable to use
http publishing and create a network place. I myself have had to do that on
occasion, sometimes they get permissions modifications or tweak firewalls, or
something that just breaks this and sometimes they'll reinstall FP extensions.
