Use your site's domain name. i.e. user.x10hosting.com, Also, have you upgraded your php version in the account control panel? (www.x10hosting.com/login)

it is simply your domain name, minus the 'http://' and 'www' prefixes.

If that's the case then why does it still fail?

You may have to wait until the current server maintenance is complete. Read the Server Alerts section in these forums for more information.

There haven't been any posts about Stoli today, from what I can see in the server alerts section.

It's not just yourdomain.com. It's actually ftp.yourdomain.com.

Hopefully that helps you out.

It's finished now away, so you should be able to connect now.

He should only be able to connect if he does it via ftp.domain.com not domain.com

I never said you can't connect that way...
I can easily connect to my ftp using just the domain; if it makes any difference, I use CuteFTP.

 

[Jarryd]

Alot of ftp clients don't allow you to connect to anything except ftp.domain.com or whatever Although yeah, cuteftp is nice and allows you to just connect to your domain.

You can connect to your FTP at ftp.rockraiderontheweb.pcriot.com with your cPanel Username & Password.

 

[rockraider]

That's what I thought...but...why does this happen then?

I used ftp.rockraiderontheweb.pcriot.com as you can see...but it still gives me me this error...over and over...

 

[Jarryd]

Try using public_html/phpbb3/

 

[rockraider]

Thank you for your help.

 

[Jarryd]

No problem, hope you have a good time uploading to your site. =D
