    whenever I try to log into my ftp site I get an error saying the host name only supports letters a-z, digits 0-9 and something else. My host name is legit and used to work, but now I am receiving this error. Maybe there is a setting I need to change. Any feedback would be appreciated.

    Hi,

    Could you please tell us your hostname - that is, exactly what you're typing into the hostname field?

    Did you recently upgrade to a new version of Fetch, or did it just stop working?

    Thanks,

    It just stopped working, so I thought I would download the new version, which i did and it gave the same error message.
    my hostname is ftp://socaltrucks.zftp.com

    Hi,

    Are you typing the "ftp://" part into the hostname field?

    If so, try entering just socaltrucks.zftp.com- don't include the "ftp://" part - and let us know if that fixes the problem.

    Thanks,
