Server rejecting connections

[bigbob85]

Hey,
I got my ispCP fully installed and working. I've managed to make my 3 seperate domains fine.
I cant seem to make any FTP users though. Well, I can, but I cant use them. My FTP client (CuteFTP) spits this back at me.

Quote:ERROR:> [11/07/2009 5:30:38 PM] The remote host actively refused the attempt to connect to it.

And im getting a similar error with mail. Im not sure if its the same problem or not, but im unable to login via root to phpmyadmin (which I think may be disabled by disabling 'remote root connections').

When setting the directory for my FTP user, I click the "Choose dir" thing, and the next page gives me the error of

Quote:Can not open directory !
Please contact your administrator !

Im thinking if its doing a FTP connection to query the directory structure... it could be not being able to connect.

One other thing I did after searching the forums, was change my vftp password in mysql (from my root account), I just remove the $ _ and that, so its nice and alphanumeric for deubgging sake, I also made the change in /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf.

Any ideas?
