    you can access the subdomain's main www directory by ftp'ing into your main domain account and just going into the directory for teh subdomain.

    I.e., main domain is mysite.com, subdomain is thisis.mysite.com

    when you ftp to mysite.com, then cd www/thisis
    that will be the root directory for the subdomain.

    Otherwise, you can go into the ftp options and create a new ftp account named the same as the subdomain (i.e. thisis) and when you ftp into the account with that username/pw you will be placed right into the subdomains main www directory.

    Good luck,
    Mike
