I was going to mention port forwarding requests from another WKP that would be open to your ftp, however I now see you pay a hosting company.
Question: (Well, ok it's 2 questions in one), does your hosting company permit ssh connections? If so, does your school permit outgoing ssh connections? (port 22)? (If you don't know, don't ask them, they may do something crazy and start blocking it.
) Try it and see.
If so, then I would imagine that scp (secure copy) is also functional on your hosting end. If you are using a windows machine (cough cough) to send the files, then look into winscp, or any other freeware client for scp'ing. Basically, it sends files over an SSH connection. Now, if your host uses Windows... then I am not sure. I doubt sincerely you could do the drive mapping as I doubt they have netbios ports open from the outside, and the other form of mapping uses ftp -- which we already know is a no-no.
Cheers.
