Hello!

I've done the searches and read the FAQ and have found nothing so it appears my problem is not common but I sure can't figure it out!

I am considering switching to FlashFXP but can't even get connected for the main FTP I use. I have uninstalled the program then reinstalled and no go. First time I had checked the box for the Windows Firewall. I couldn't get it to work then realized that I don't use the Windows Firewall so reinstalled and unchecked it. Still didn't work. I have another FTP site that I connect to so I tried to login on that site and it WORKED so it is not a problem with a firewall on my end.

I am connecting to my GoDaddy site just fine with CuteFTP 4.0 but I can't connect with FlashFXP. I have tried to connect via the IP address as well as the www address with the same results. Here is the message I am getting. I've edited out personal info..

[R] Connecting to GoDaddy -> IP=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxPORT=21
[R] Connected to GoDaddy
[R] 220---------- Welcome to Pure-FTPd [privsep] [TLS] ----------
[R] 220-You are user number 1 of 50 allowed.
[R] 220-Local time is now 03:42. Server port: 21.

[R] PASS (hidden)
[R] 530 Login authentication failed
[R] Connection failed
[R] Delaying for 120 seconds before reconnect attempt #1
[R] Retry attempt Aborted

It looks like the password or username is not good but, trust me, I've retyped them 10 times and even did a text dump of the login info from my CuteFTP account and copy-n-pasted it and still the same results. Username and password are correct but something is up. Any ideas??? This looks nice and I'd like to use it but if I can't even connect to my site... well... doesn't do me much good

Thanks!
