Hi, what I was hoping to see was the debug window,( right behind the File Transfer Log Window in your screenshot.
)
If you can get a log of the connections debug output, you should have a good chance of determining why the connection fails.
Try running CuteFTP in debug mode, with all connection settings to "automatic", this may help get the settings right.
here is a listing of some of the numbers infront of the debug output:
1yz Positive Preliminary reply. The request action has been initiated,but another reply is to be expected before the client issues another command
2yz Positive Completion reply. The requested action has successfully completed, and the client may issue another command
3yz Positive Intermediate reply. The command has been accepted, but more information is required. The client should send another command in reply.
4yz Transient Negative reply. The command failed, but it can be retried
5yz Permanent Negative Completion reply. The command failed, and should not be repeated.
The yz of each number above will be 2 digits that define the exact code, ie,
550 nonexistentdir: The system cannot find the file specified.
230 User xxxxx logged in.
