Yes, I know, it’s irritating!

Some policy changes:

(x) We don’t use FTP anymore
(x) We drop all packets that are not destined to port 22, 80 or 443.
(x) We now only support Secure FTP over SSH2
(x) Kerberized FTP will be soon made available

How does this effect you?

exunclan.com directly gets affected, since you probably use an FTP client to connect to it; to upload files. I recommend downloading FileZilla, an awesome FTP client that supports both SFTP over SSH2, and Kerberize FTP.

The idea is that both these services will be supported, and there shouldn’t be any major problem henceforth.

For the convenience of the blog maintainers, the Blogger settings have been updated to reflect SFTP over SSH2
