The client automatically goes into passive mode, so I've tried that, sadly. That's probably why the service is so cheap: It's practically impossible to get things on the server  Wink.

FTP is a strange protocol.  It uses one port for a control channel and other ports for the data.

Try using passive mode maybe: http://slacksite.com/other/ftp.html

But I avoid FTP and haven't used it in years because it's not a secure protocol and use SCP instead.  But many free/budget hosts won't give you SSH access.

Okay, so I recently got some webspace (000a.biz), and I can't figure out how to put files on it using FTP. I tried using FireFTP and FileZilla, but they both give me the same problem: They copy the directory structure (subfolders), and the client says that they're moving the files, but they never show up on the remote server. It works fine when I use the web interface, but that has a pretty low limit as to the file size. Help?
