If you mean publishing that uses Frontpage extensions, then the answer would be no. If it has FTP mode, it should work fine.
Thanks for the response. Is there some other way to allow multiple accounts to publish via FPx?
Let me explain my situation, maybe there is a more viable solution. My soon to be father-in-law has started taking a web design course (ASP.NET w/ general design) so I bought him his own domain for his birthday, and I've got it setup under my account. He'd be using it as a family/personal site with few hits, plus used as a learning tool. I'd like to let him have access to the directory for the domain only (publish & ftp), plus possibly limit the resources he can use (this isn't a big issue, he'd stay within a limit if I asked him too). I'd be handling all the administration of the site, so he would not need access the control panel. Also, he would be the only one publishing to that domain, so there is only need for one user.
Any suggestions?

Probably you can help him try using FTP as deployment method:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/34322t8f(VS.80).aspx
As long as the website is published to domain's root folder and all dlls go in /bin folder, his application should work fine right away with this deployment method.
