Nautilus not only allows you to browse and mount shares on local networks, but it can also act as an FTP client, say for instance when you want to change the files for your website on a remote server. To do this, go to the Connect to Server window (File Connect to Server), and then select FTP (with login) for Service Type. Then type the information provided by your website host,and click the Connect button. An FTP Network Share icon will then appear on the desktop and in the side pane. Double-click that icon, type your password (for that account—not the one for your Ubuntu system, unless it happens to be the same) when prompted to do so, and then you will be able to view and add to the files you have there.
