Try cshell.plus.net - you might have more luck!

Are you on a Plusnet connection?

Yep, definately made from a PN connection.. I havent had time to check it today, but I will try it later on, was there a known problem to do with this, I was able to replicate it from another 2 PN connections as well :S

Re: FTP'ing to CCGI - Is there a problem?

Hmm strange, I can't replicate this from here:-
ftp ccgi.plus.net
Connected to ccgi.plus.net.
220 Plus.Net CGI FTP Server #1 ready
Name (ccgi.plus.net:cparr):

ftp ccgi.force9.net
Connected to ccgi.force9.net.
220 Force9.Net CGI FTP Server #1 ready
Name (ccgi.force9.net:cparr):

Both PN and F9 ccgi servers let me connect and log in without issues.
