Maybe ftp is disabled? What about SSH? (you could even
try Telnet to see if it's disabled). Let me also ask a very
obvious question, do you have an account? I assume you
do since you loaded your html onto it.

You could also run nmap against to see what ports are
open, but be VERY, VERY, VERY careful if you do
this. You could be criminally liable.

Good Luck!
