Hi. I am also trying to connect using FTPES with FileZilla. I can connect okay with basic FTP, but if I following the instructions in knowledge base article 318 and set "Server Type" to "FTPES – FTP over explicit TLS/SSL" for my connection I get the following error:- ... Status: Connected Status: Retrieving directory listing... Command: PWD Response: 257 "/" is current directory. Command: TYPE I Response: 200 Type set to I. Command: PASV Response: 227 Entering Passive Mode (89,187,102,211,217,16). Command: LIST Response: 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection. Error: Connection timed out Error: Failed to retrieve directory listing I admit that I did get a message about DiscountASPs certificate. I thought I clicked to continue, but I cannot get the message to display again, even looking in FileZilla settings. Anyone got any suggestions. John Thompson P.S. The knowledge base articles 10570 and 10577 don't work for me either. In the knowledge base search they don't exist and following the links above they show the browser error:- Server Error in '/' Application. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The resource cannot be found. Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

What platform are you running? Is it IIS 6 or IIS 7? I believe the kb articles you are searching for may have been deprecated or the article ID has changed. Try using this link. http://support.discountasp.net/KB/c80/ftp-client-setup-iis-7-ftp-over-ssl.aspx
All is well that ends well Well, it didn't work, but I just downloaded the latest version of FileZilla and all of a sudden the connection settings that didn't work, now work. They must have slipped a bug in after the knowledge base articles were written, that is now fixed in version 3.2.7.1. I just hope it is actually using SSL, because I don't know how to check.
if you are connected over SSL, you should see something like this in the log Command: AUTH TLS Response: 234 AUTH command ok. Expecting TLS Negotiation. Status: Initializing TLS... Command: USER xxxxxx Status: Verifying certificate... Status: TLS/SSL connection established.
