Have you tried another ftp browser?

This also could be a problem with the server if so i believe SHadmin will see this post and give you some help.

humm this boils dow to two issues.

1) you are not useing the correct login information

2) There is a issue with your account and you need to contact smoky.

In the mean time try to create another account for your ftp and try again.

Yeah he is, I am getting the own problem. With CuteFTP, says it won't connect.

Everything is right, and nothing.... Must be that problem with the server, but this is getting rather useless. Site's can't be unable to be worked on for this length of time, I have a deadline that I must meet. O.o O.O o.O


Oh well I will work on the essentials and then when the server problems are cleared then I will work on the coding and everything.


Edit: It also says it is actively refusing it. That means the server itself is rejecting the connection. I suppose it is a thing we will have to ****ing wait for. :P, Im not mad I just very impatient :D.

SH Web Server: Online

FTP: Offline

It's the ftp, thankfully I don't need to upload anything else to my site at this point.
