New Post: Why does AlexFTPS complaints "WARNING: SSL/TLS remote certificate chain errors"?

" A remote certificate chain error means that the certificate CN is ok, but the CA which issued the certificate is not trusted. The certificate you are using is a self signed certificate generated by FilZilla server.
Depending on the platform you are using (.Net framework on Windows...you could add the CA certificate to the trusted CA store handled by the OS.

To ignore this warning, just add: -sslInvalidServerCertHandling Accept to the command line."

I'm in a similar situation. I've got filezilla with a cert on my win7 PC, from a trusted CA, but filezilla says my client is "not logged in". I then tried -sslInvalidServerCertHandling Accept without luck as well.

The error I get is: "ERROR: Unable to read data from the transport connection: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond
.
Inner exception: System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond
at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.Receive(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 size, SocketFlags socketFlags)
at System.Net.Sockets.NetworkStream.Read(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 size)"

For reference, and to eliminate the issue of firewalls blocking a necessary port, the filezilla client connects successfully.

thanks!
