phpbb on 1and1

[kittenhead]

Hi, I am fairly new to creating web sites and need a little help getting started installing phpbb on my site. I have a totally new set up with 1and1 and I've followed the instructions for installation on the phpbb web site but I've hit a little wall. It tells me to upload the all the files into my base directory for your web pages, but I'm not sure where that is. When I connect with cuteftp the only files it shows is a log file and index.html. So where should I be uploading these files? I'm sorry if this is a stupid question but like I said I'm pretty new to this :p
Thanks in advance for the help!!

upload them in the same directory as the index file. actually, you need to overwrite the index file with your own index file, this will be your homepage (index.php). also, 1@1 only offers php support with linux, so make sure you are not running the windows package, otherwise your phpbb will not be supported.
