Hi, I have tried to connect to Upload files via FTP through 2 different avenues: CoffeeCup's Direct FTP program and also Media Lab Sitegrinder FTP routine. I have repeatedly checked and typed in the correct server, with the user name and password. All I every get is failure to connect to the server. Is there something else extra that I need to do?? Is the port # 21?? Any other suggestions??


Thanks, Roddy

Hiya Roddy,

Have you gone to your godaddy account to make sure what the settings are that are needed for you to connect? That would be the first thing to check. Usually they give you information on FTP connection information that you'll need other than just your ID and Password. Port is something they would have to tell you, but most of the time it is 21. Many times it has to do with the remote server address or the remote folder setting. Check those things and let us know if you need more assistance :) Jo Ann
