It appears that the FTP TLS support that used to work before the crash is no longer working.

Here's my Filezilla debug log:

Code:

Have you logged into your Cpanel and set it up to allow TLS again?

I don't believe there is such an option in cPanel.

However, I've managed to get it working, I think.

I used to connect using FileZilla specifying Protocol: "FTP - File Transfer Protocol", and Encryption: "Use explicit FTP over TLS if available". This used to provide an encrypted TLS FTP connection, but now it only provides an unencrypted FTP connection.

However, connecting using Protocol: "SFTP - SSH File Transfer Protocol" does appear to work and give me a secure TLS connection, although it says the host's certificate is invalid. It also puts me in a different directory: "/home/belltown", instead of "/", and allows me to navigate up to the /home parent directory. Before, I could only go up as far as my public_html directory.

I can live with it the way it is now, but it might be worth some investigation.
 
Ok, I see TLS uses port 990. I use secure shell2 on port 22..

I use cuteftp as Filezilla doesn't seem to have some of the feature that cute has. But glade its working now
