WS_FTP will not upload files

I have recently opened an account with 1and1.co.uk and decided to get to know their standard server.

The account and server place was created OK and I am trying to upload a test file.

I am using WS_FTP and this created a connection to /

However I cannot upload a file and after a few minutes get "Socket Error" showing in WS.

If I connect to my server at Fasthosts I can connect and upload files without any problems.

Can anyone suggest what may be going wrong please.

Many thanks

John

Thanks for the help.

I found eventually that I had to create a new ftp account in 1and1 as the one which is created automatically would not allow me to upload.
