hello can anyone help me im trying to connect to my server through filezilla
check your hostname. why are you using ftp?
Look at this recent topic - it explains how (both through Virtualmin and without Virtualmin)
filezilla-ftp-sftp-connection
ok i will have a look and im using proFTPD server on virtualmin
its only allowing me access to the /Maildir and not to the files
I presume you want to upload to the web site then create a website ftp user
you can use filemanager to upload and edit files as well.
im trying to setup a backup using an ftp server as i have everything for my website already on a usb drive that is connected to another pc
Backup what?
to backup my server onto a usb hard driver
Backup ftp is normally to another ftp server, do you have 2 servers? else use localfile.
no i just have one server
Use local file or directory then, and alot quicker.
ok i do have a spear hard drive on my server that i would like to put my backup files onto it but its not showing up on the backup list
You prob need to mount it.
Has it been given a mount location? like /mnt/whatever
