I tried using my FTP app to get into server but it kept timing out.
I contacted my hosting provider who told me that FTP on C-panel
needs to enabled.

Can someone advise screen by screen where I can enable this.

Thx

FTP enable, where ? (fixed)

After further review I went into

[Restart Services]

DNS Server (BIND)
E-Commerce Server (Interchange)
FTP Server (ProFTPd/PureFTPd) <-------------------
HTTP Server (Apache)
IMAP Server (uwimap)
Mail Server (Exim)
POP3 Server (cppop)
SQL Server (MySQL)
SSH Server (OpenSSH)

Then restarted it. Now I can access via ftp applications.

do you have root access to the server are are you just a cpanel user
How can you tell if you have root acess?

The cpanel sevice name and password was givin to me from a previous admin. But when I try to ftp I get a password error

And the "ftp manager" in accounts doesn't allow me to get the access files "503 login incorrect"

What does this mean?

if you go to
WHM
Service Configuration
Service Manager
and check monitor

it will restart if it fails
Is there a reason why I wouldn't want to monitor everything that the server uses? I mean, is it a resource hog, or is there anything else that might cause a problem if I were to do this?

thanks,
