there's absolutely nothing wrong on Viking right now. please check the same from your end. If you still cannot connect to the ftp server then open a ticket for our support team.

Could have just been a temporary problem. Seen as though your post was a couple of days ago have you checked again since?  |

the problem has started again. after a long evening with Tech Support who assured me they could connect via Ftp while I could not. Now after a using FTP yesterday, (bear in mind nothing has been changed) tonight I can't. yet I can access via ftp some webspace that comes with my ISP package. yet I cannot connect to either of my domains hosted by euk.
I have cuteftp and filezilla the later using the automatic settings download from the control panel. I have opened ports 21 on my nat firewall
I am at a loss, and please forgive if I don't open another ticket to sit through exactly the same results.

There were FTP problems caused a while back with the "Passive FTP" setting. I think it was activated when it shouldn't have been. I know it is a bit of a stab in the dark but you seem pretty desperate  . |

Seems like you have an intermittant FTP fault. Seems strange - but at least it is working for you now . |

Could be the server firewall blocking your IP from ftpd due to failed login attempts.

That was me when I had the same problem of intermittant access. The solution was to set 'passive transfer mode' to "Use passive mode" |

Yes, never had to do this in the past. God knows what changed? What is the difference between passive and non passive mode? |

Oh well it cant be anything that major then!! I just assume it is a different way of connecting to the FTP server and obviously at the moment its prefering a passive connection . |
