FileZilla Forums

Hi. Its me again. I am using cloud flare proxy/DNS service on my website and that's where I am having problems with using Filezilla. When cloudflare is activated the FTP client does not work / connect to FTP and I have to turn cloudflare off to get FTP working. What could be solution for it? I know I can use IP address (as hostname) but I don't want to remember it. Is there any alternative way to connect to FTP using my own domain name (as hostname) and having cloudflare activated at the same time. Your comments will be appreciated.

That's a question for Cloudflare's support.

Log in to cloudflare and see where you're diverting the traffic too.

If you try to connect via FTP to a domain that is protected by Cloudflare, it will not work. That’s because Cloudflare will only proxy traffic going through specific ports; standard FTP ports are not included.
