 		FTP sites...
Was just browsing around the ftp sites, and the message from caesar ("220 Remember, userSPLATdomain.tld --caesar.") is also on the FTP for some of the other sites:

little-boxes.net
sheismissing.info
heismissing.info
paranormaljournal.org
underscorehosting.com

I don't know if this means that we should know FTP logins for all of these sites, or that the clues are out there, but I thought it was significant...

Maybe the images from paintover.net are clues to FTP logins??

Hope this points someone in the right direction.

 		All those IP addresses go to the same FTP server.

www.metacortechs.com is a different ftp server though.

 		Who can I download files from there ? CuteFTP doesnīt even locate that directory. Using FTP Explorer I locate ftp.aquapolis.com and log in normaly , but I donīt know what to do to download files. GET isnīt understood by their servers and I donīt know how to use any of the commands provided by the HELP command to download a file.

In CuteFTP, from the "Transfer" Menu, Pick "Manual Get"

Then enter one of the filenames

repeat as required for the other files

you dont need the protocol (ftp://) This is only to tell Internet Explorer to use FTP mode to connect. An FTP client already knows this.

Code:

STATUS:>   Connecting to ftp.paintover.net
STATUS:>   Connecting to ftp.paintover.net (ip = 66.135.36.145)
STATUS:>   Socket connected. Waiting for welcome message...
   220 Remember, userSPLATdomain.tld --caesar.
STATUS:>   Connected. Authenticating...
COMMAND:>   USER cassiusSPLATtheaquapolis.com
   331 Password required for cassiusSPLATtheaquapolis.com.
COMMAND:>   PASS ********
   230 User cassiusSPLATtheaquapolis.com logged in.
STATUS:>   Login successful

I need a little more to go on.

CuteFTP has a site wizard, create a new entry and use these settings;

Label for Site: Aquapolis (Cassius)

FTP Host Address: ftp.theaquapolis.com

FTP site User Name: cassiusSPLATtheaquapolis.com

FTP site Password: urchin

FTP site connection port: 21


Then Hit CONNECT.

I am using that wizard since the first time. It still doesnīt work. Is there any other good FTP browser ? As I said, I could connect with FTP Explorer, but I donīt know what commands I should send to download any file....

 		All the sites, ftps, etc are currently down. Some players got into the main site (metacortes's root dir) and, either they hosed everything, or the PMs took it all down.

How did you find this out?

Yeah that's why I asked for more information such as;

Code:

STATUS:>   Socket connected. Waiting for welcome message...
ERROR:>   Timeout


Simply telling me you still can't connect helps no-one.

No, there is nothing like what you described. It is just:

ERROR:> Cannot resolve host name
ERROR:> Can't log in. Still trying...

ERROR:> Cannot resolve host name
ERROR:> Can't log in. Still trying...

 		Looks like you're just not getting the name resolved by DNS. Don't know what client you're using, but here's a link to SmartFTP, a free FTP client:

http://tucows.com/preview/195133.html

To get these files in SmartFTP. you have to go to Commands/Custom Commands/Miscellaneous/Get Hidden Files, and enter in the names, once connected. When they bring it back up, of course.
