[SOLVED] fresh install - cant login with ftp

[psygarden]

I've just completed a fresh install and wanted to login using an ftp account to transfer the data from my old server, now i'm running into an issue here...

I had an admin account from the installation procedure. Logged in and created a reseller account. There i created my first user and when logged in as this user i added an ftp account.

Now whenever i try to connect to my server i get this error:

Quote:C:\Users\rhelsen>ftp
ftp> open psygarden.eu
Connected to psygarden.eu.
Connection closed by remote host.

Could not connect to 85.10.xxx.xxx: Connection refused.
Sleeping 20 seconds...

I tried various ftp clients from my local windows machine as well as a second remote linux box, without success...

it doesn't matter if proftpd is running or not, i keep getting this very same error...

/var/log/proftpd/controls.log is empty
/var/log/proftpd/ftp_traff.log is empty
/var/log/proftpd/proftpd.log contains a few lines relevant to my reboots of the server, and a failed login count for an "administrator" user that i never created myself ( probably a system account related ispcp)

All help is very much appreciated!
greetings,
Rik
