so i did i use the ftp adress as follows: host.trap17.com and bang --->> 530 and an another thing i guess that the anonymous access to our accounts sould be removable

well thats a strange adress :Si use it like this:username: wassiepassword: ************ftp adres: wassie.trap17.comand it works fine for me :S

heheh

this is how ftp addresses are put all together and interpreted by ftp clients web browsers ect
your_host.com

nothing strange bout it

anyways i have tried to put this in the original syntax (the one given above) and the normal (user pass host )way
both failed giving the 530

my ftp account(the main one) works great

i appears that I'm the only one with the problem so to make it more clear for you guys i have set up a test ftp account leading to a "test" directory bosz.trap17.com or for those of you that don't use the short syntax: user : test pass :test1234 ftp: bosz.trap17.com i have tried this account with bosz.trap17.com and ftp.trap.17.com with null results

[br][R] Connecting to bosz.trap17.com -> IP=69.50.188.18 PORT=21[/br][R] Connected to bosz.trap17.com[br][R] 220-=(<*>)=-.:. (( Welcome to PureFTPd 1.0.12 )) .:.-=(<*>)=-[/br][R] 220-You are user number 5 of 50 allowed.[br][R] 220-Local time is now 13:33 and the load is 47.73.

as you can see the pass is interpreted as wrong by the server and i have tried this some time after i made changes so i doubt its a time issue i guess the subftp account are disabled for us but it is written nowwhere

Why dont you use a program eg. WS_FTP for ftp. Your way seems very abnormal but i have seen it before once. Then the site didnt let me load it...... :S

[serverph 0]

the one i gave is entirely different. and it is tested on an FTP client,not from the browser. go check your test folder i have uploaded successfully there
