As i say i ask some not very clever questions...

1. Why do you close FTP server? I ask that becose i have to upload files on another server with ftp and then download it with wget on shell. I have to do it such way becose SSH uploads(pscp.exe) are terminated very often.

2. Does admins know some ftp-server program(that can bind itself on higher port) that i can run in background to tranfer my files?

I do not ask much: to me it is not necessary ftp constantly, anonymous ftp I too do not use, SIMPLY CONVENIENT way of viewing and uploading files is necessary to me. HTTP-scripts are not conveniently and in it me will not overpersuade...

FTP is an insecure medium and the only reason it previously existed on the shell server was because DirectAdmin demanded it. Now that the web hosting and shell are separate there is no longer FTP access to the shells.

It is illogical that your SSH connections hold up better than your SFTP connections as at the end of the day, they are the same connection. Perhaps your have a faulty client, try another. For example I use CoreFTP.
