W3 Total Cache – FTP Self Hosted CDN Option – Can’t Get it to Work

I must be missing something simple. No matter how I configure it, the test always fails.

Can somebody walk me through this? And can ya make it idiot proof for this idiot? :))

Use passive FTP mode – to check or not to check…that is the question

FTP hostname: – I am using the same shared hosting server as my site – do I use localhost or https://ftp.mydomain.com?

FTP username: I created a new one just for this purpose

FTP password: I created a new one just for this purpose

FTP path: Is this a server path, an html one or an ftp. one?

Replace site’s hostname with: I created a subdomain called CDN.mydomain.com and it points to a folder called /CDN – I created an FTP login that strictly has access to only that folder. I also tried to give the login full access, but that did not work neither.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
