I am sorry, but I have no idea how to fix this issue. I read the Network configuration and I am using the login that I use to get into the website. I am very new at this so please be patient with me. Any help would be appreciated. I am hosting a website for a volunteer organization who needs a large doc posted and their program won't accept it because of its size.

Thanks,
:oops:

Not to sound totally incompetent, but I would be using the normal user ID and password that I use to sign into the site correct? From some of the information I read on the Forum I may need to to contact the host company to get permission.
Thanks for your help! :lol:

Thank you! I figured out what was going on. It had to do with my host server and user name and password issues. Thanks. :P

The FTP login data isn't necessarily the same as the cPanel login data. Sometimes you even need to configure FTP access yourself (with a separate username and password). Search your cPanel. Contact the server administrator if that doesn't help.

The real question: Why did he bother to respond to a two-year-old thread? I'm closing this one now due to thread necromancy.
