Why does my filezilla manager return next error:

Status: Resolving address of ftp.sudzone.com
Status: Connecting to 208.87.35.103:22...
Status: Connection attempt failed with "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server".
Error: Could not connect to server

P.S. My host is ftp.sudzone.com and account - [email protected]

Thanks.

Hello gavaig, The domain name sudzone.com is not yet pointed to our name servers (ns.inmotionhosting.com and ns2.inmotionhosting.com) so the IP address in the connection is not ours. To connect to the server using the domain name, you will need to have the registrar of the domain point to our name servers. Also, when trying to connect, our shared server environment only uses port 21, so be sure not to try port 22 or it will error out. While waiting for the domain name to point to our servers, you can connect by using the hosting server IP in place of the domain name. You can find your IP address by following these instructions.
