Hi,

I have a friend with an old site which is domain registered and hosted already.

He does not have any details as to who hosts his site, or with who he registered the domain with, so how can I upload his new site when I am finished so his clients get the new improved website.

Thanks in advance.

Assuming it's not a free site, Icann knows who owns and who registered the domain even if he forgets. Start with a DNS lookup or ask your friend to check his credit card bill for the domain/hosting fees he's been paying.

You're going to need to know who hosts the domain and what the account access details and passwords are before you can upload anything.
