unable to login with FileZilla 2
Colin Bye
Reading my email again I realise that I had not clearly said what I
wanted. So try again.
Please could someone try to connect using FileZilla and my user code
cbye. You don't need my password as the sftp program reports an error
before it asks for a password. So any random string of characters will
do for the password.
Many thanks

Colin,
OK, I gave it shot, using my Rootsweb config, but putting cbye in the user field. Results:
Status: Connecting to sitesuser.rootsweb.co....
Status: Using username "cbye".
Status: Access denied
Error: Authentication failed.
Error: Critical error: Could not connect to server
When I tried to connect, the login was still set to use my password. I can't tell whether the Access denied is being generated before RootWeb checks the password (could go either way).
I hope that helps.

Roger and Colin, I tired it without entering the password and get the same error message.

Same here. But, the errors
"Access denied / Authentication failed"
make sense if your account needs a password and one is not entered.
