The local dir is simply the folder on your computer where you are keeping the files you want to upload.
The remote dir is the folder you want to put them into on the server. This varies depending on how your server is set up - you'll need to refer to the documentation from your hosting provider - but it may be something like 'htdocs'.

last poster was correct. Other remote directories may be
public_html
or
www
Depends on who you are hosting with. If you are still having trouble with this feel free to contact me I build host and support websites for a living,
