Trying to set up a coreFTP server

[JDLBTech]

I am getting the most frustrating error. I am attempting to connect with SSH over port 22. I have the NAT configured in the firewall. My winscp client is able to get prompted for authorization, but I get:

"Permission Denied
Error Code 3
Error Message from server: Permission Denied"

I have verified several times that the password between teh server account and the FTP client is identical.

I see the connection attempt show up on the CoreFTP Server with the notation "Processing commands..."

Locally, when I try the attempt to local the server to localhost with a locally installed ftp client (this case Filezilla Client) i get a "Network Error: Connection refused".

I have found as much documentation as I could and I don't think I have deviated from the setup instructions. I am using a self-signed certificate, I just can't figure out why coreFTP is refusing the connection.

Any help out there?

Check "Disable FTP" in the domain setup if not using FTP/SSL.

That has been done, and the behavior is the same.

I recently had a similar issue setting up the Core FTP Server for SSH.

Does the error message Window start with Error Listing Directory '/'?

If so, in my case, I didn't have the permissions set properly on the users home directory. I had to highlight the home directory in the permissions list then modify the permissions and click OK. Once done, I no longer had issues.
