Alex is farting around with FTP's again....

[LeperousDust]

Right take 10, i've scraped what i was using as it was giving me immense hassle. I'm back to using something i tried earlier but this time i'm gonna make sure i get it working

So i'm using freeSSHd which is essentially based off openSSH i think. Now basically installed it pointed it to the root folder i want. Made one user (boatdrinks) with a SHA1 hash password (welcomeaboard) granted SFTP rights only. And started the SFTP service. Yet i still can't connect internally or externally with WinSCP, 've given up using FireFTP because tbh i think that was part of my original problems anyway it doesn't seem that good.

So the question is why can i still not connect ? =/

I'm using freeSSHd because i hope to also use the SSH side of thing for a bit of admin just in case in the future. Its nice to have Next is a VPN and some kind of SSH tunnels VNC just in case But hey babysteps since my SFTP isn't playing ball yet.
