[Solved] Tommy: Ftps Buggy

[DmC]

<p>

 

SFTP requires ssh access to the username in question which we don't have AFAIK.

Nope, everyone has access to SFTP. Here are some instructions I wrote for Filezilla, but you can probably adapt them to any FTP client.

• Open Filezilla
• Click File >> Site Manager
• Click New Site
• Type "Tommy SFTP" and press enter
• In Host field type "tommy.heliohost.org"
• In Port field type "1342"
• In Protocol dropdown select "SFTP - SSH File Transfer Protocol"
• In Logon Type dropdown select "Normal"
• In User field type your cPanel username
• In Password field type your cPanel password
• Click Connect
• Approve the remote server key, and check the box to not ask you about this server again.

It works fine for my android client. Thanks

 

As a suggestion I would propose disabling ftps on 21 completely and make people using sftp.

As you said it's more secure.
