My server has IP restrictions in place and I can't connect.
176.58.111.229

To allow SSH terminal connections, our IP is:
ssh.shiftedit.net [50.116.56.24]

I get the message: "Please check your settings: connection to host failed."

Our servers may be being blocked by your domains firewall or ftp server.
Check for IP restrictions as mentioned above.
If that fails, try checking your ftp logs or firewall logs. You may need to contact your hosting provider to resolve this issue.

Can I access Amazon S3 buckets with a restricted IAM account?

Yes:

• Create IAM credentials for a "role" based user (e.g. ShiftEdit-bucketname)
• apply an IAM policy for this user
• plug in the IAM credentials into ShiftEdit's site setup in a similar way as you've defined for the main user credentials, and
• select the bucket name as the opening directory into ShiftEdit's site setup
• The IAM policy is: {"Statement": [{"Action": ["s3:ListBucket", "s3:GetObject", "s3:PutObject", "s3:DeleteObject", "s3:PutObjectAcl", "s3:PutObjectVersionAcl"], "Effect": "Allow", "Resource": ["arn:aws:s3:::bucketname/*", "arn:aws:s3:::bucketname"]},{"Effect": "Allow", "Action": "s3:ListAllMyBuckets", "Resource": "*"}]}
