Good Morning! SFTP help

Post by ccsauer »

Good morning! I just downloaded your software, and I'm having trouble connecting to my SFTP server at home. Here is what I have filled in:

Hostname: 72.194.XXX.XX
Type: SFTP (SSh file transfer protocol)
Port: 22
Username: colin
password: ********
local dir: /sdcard
remote dir: /home/colin

Charset: default
mode: passive

named: 72.194.XXX.XX

So, my issue is, I am 100% sure my name/pass is accurate, yet it says "invalid credentials" every time I try to connect. Might I have a different part of the form filled out incorrectly?

Please let me know!

Hello,

"Invalid credentials" means that your login/password is wrong. If you try with a regular SFTP client on desktop, are you able to connect ?
