i'm trying to upload some shit for my UMR webspace from home. the usual app i use, WS_FTP won't connect to "gpunix.umr.edu" or "gpunix.cc.umr.edu" (i forgot which one was correct) so then i tried all the others ("rocket.cc.umr.edu, saucer.cc.umr.edu....) and none would connect. i then tried to telnet to them using window's telnet and none would connect.

do i need to be on UMR's network in order to gain access to these services? does anyone know?

try using winscp for uploading, you dont need to be on campus, and you dont even need to be on VPN ^_^

you must use a secure ftp connection when off campus or on wireless. By secure ftp connection, I mean use WinSCP, WS_FTP Pro, or another than can connect with SFTP.

shcwing!
