I use CCBill for my third party billing company. I have absolutly no problems with the server, except for this wierd issue with CCBill. They are telling me that they can't connect to the server because of a time out error. For whatever reason, they can't FTP on their end. I can FTP all day long. It's not a firewall problem. I have no clue. and they aren't helping either. Any ideas on what the problem could be? I'm not sure if they can ssh it. The server is not behind a firewall. I did not install a software firewall. Here is the error log: *** CuteFTP Pro 3.3 - build Aug 25 2003 *** STATUS:> Getting listing ""... STATUS:> Resolving host name www.mysite.com...

No, the server is in my home. I have not yet put a router in front of it. My cable modem is a gateway type of modem. I have a static IP address that goes straight through to the server. Thanks again, Kirk
Okay, I found this problem here: http://kb.globalscape.com/article.aspx?id=10293&cNode=4K1J1P is there anyway that i can fix my server so it doesn't have this problem? Kirk
As far as I understand it it's not a server problem, but a problem with CuteFTP, so the CCBill guys have to change their CuteFTP settings.
