FTP servers mainly File Zilla


Question Posted Wednesday February 2 2011, 2:55 pm

I have Filezilla and Aracnophillia. I am trying to work with Filezilla cause that's the program that the group I am working with is using. Ok here is the deal. I have a .com and I am trying to edit a code and upload it to my site via Filezilla. I have downloaded filezilla and go to Site Management or whatever and go to put in my site name and password etc and then when I go to connect I cannot do it. Can anyone help me? I am very new so please use laymens terms. Or if you could suggest an easier way to do it that would be great. Thank you very much.

Hi there,

All you need to connect to an FTP server is:

Hostname: blah-blah.com (or whatever)

Username

Password

Possibly the port number if your host uses one other than 21.

If you have all of these correct, try disabling your firewall.

If that doesn't work, contact your web host, as something is not working correctly.
