I been on NTL broadband for some years but never used the website facility. I read on the NTL homepage that I get 55MB of space so I downloaded terapin to have a go at building a simple site. I also have a copy of cuteFTP, but neither programme can connect to the internet/website
Terapin requests the following info(my response is included):
Server Address : upload.ntlworld.com
username :correct username
password : correct password
The programme fails to connect stating: THE SERVER DROPPED YOUR CONNECTION. IT IS POSSIBLE YOU DO NOT HAVE AUTHORITY TO CONNECT TO THIS SERVER
This is what CuteFTP asks for and what I enter:
Host address : upload.ntlworld.
Site Address : which is just the site name
username: entered correctly
passowrd: entered correctly
After attempting to connect the programme gives this message:
THE HOST VALIDATION FAILED.CHECK THAT THE USERNAME AND PASSWORD ARE CORRECT
Both the username and password were entered correctly.
If anyone has any idea how to help me I would be very grateful
