i just find it very strange that the problem was not highlighted enough, now it is
Code:
ps -A | grep sshd
Code:
/sbin/ifconfig wlan0 | grep inet
Code:
ping YOUR_IP_ADDRESS
Also could you confirm again that the answer to all of the following questions is yes (sorry to repeat myself, just making sure):
- You have selected scp as the protocol in WinSCP (not sftp).
- You are connecting as root.
- You are entering the password correctly (no caps lock, etc).
If everything here looks OK you'll have to enable logging from WinSCP I think and post the output here (link in my last post).
Cheers,
Jan

Works fine with me :-)
I can recommend the following PC-Side software:
1.) Putty for login into N900. http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~s.../download.html
2.) Filezilla for copying files. http://filezilla-project.org/
3.) I am copying my Pictures from N900 -> Linux server using rsync, and my home data/music from Linux Server -> N900 (also rsync)
Who need iBlah etc ? :-)
Also check in a WLAN, that the router allows connections between devices ...

strange thing is i managed to do that yesterday after reinstalling only once
i have not selected anything other than the default protocol, and for me that is: SFTP, and 'allow FCP fallback' is ticked, i tried changing all of these when it wasnt working and it made no difference,
the app worked for approx 6weeks with these settings, and its now working again with these settings
yes my user name is 'root'
and yes my password is correct
but when its not working those things seem irrelevant anyway cos even if i leave username and passwork blank or if i deliberately type a different password and username i still get the same : network error: connection refused
my wireless router has always been perfect for every device or program associated with it so i cant blame that
would still like to see a solution as the next person with this problem will end up searching the internet all day like i did yesterday, and seeing lots of other people with the problem but with no clear solution for fixing it
as strange as it may sound i think that actually typing my ip addr into WinSCP when creating a new login profile, instead of pasting it in from a text file was what fixed it, (even though there both exactly the same)
ill find out next time it goes off

@leetut
Told you it was the ip
@Au{R}oN
No it's not, are your router's ports forwarded properly?
Is the signal strong enough?
What kind of router do you have? B/G, B/G/M, B etc...?

It wouldn't hurt to thank the person who tried to talk you through the problem either.

Yes the signal is strong (Max)

Also, i have absolutely NO PROBLEM when using N900 Wi-fi for navigation.

again today i have the 'daily' network error: connection refused
cant log in, tried too many times already, cant be the ip cos im typing the correct ip into the box, worked all day yesterday, then today it wont work again
@hellnick: reinstalling the application both on the device and the PC makes no difference now, it still wont work
i do thank people, if ive missed anyone i apologise, i dont want anyone to thank me in public, i much prefer thanks in a pm cos its more personal, but to be honest the 'thanks/rep' function should be removed, every forum ive ever used that had that function always gave me bad feelings, i think its cos i see too many people being downright rude to newcomers on big forums like this (yes i experienced it on this forum when i first joined) it does make people take on a more dismissive personality when asking for help, compared to forums where everyone is nice to eachother, where i have a very helpfull and understanding personality, where i stay up for hours helping people, the problem could be fixed with some very strict moderating, or we could fix it ourselves, anyway enough ranting from me, from now on ill be mr nice guy i promise
would love to know why i cant log in tho!

This is the best method ever. I can't believe I'm using ssh to upload and download things from a phone...
It's so great to back up files, download camera pictures and upload whatever I need just by connecting to my wifi ap and clicking a shortcut on the desktop, it's so convenient I almost can't believe it.
I'm using filezilla as a client, works really well.
