Awesome using sftp works! :)  However, I'm trying to get Dreamweaver to 
connect.  Strange thing is that when I try to connect using Dreamweaver 
at work to my home machine using the secure ftp option it doesn't work. 
 Any idea why sftp command will work but trying to connect through 
Dreamweaver won't?

thanks.
