I also have the same issue with the FTP. Did you find out a solution? Maybe the username or password changed? @jgeorge

Hi, @helder and @jgeorge I am having the same problem accessing data using ftp. Have you figured out how to download data?

Hi @CataRivera, unfortunately not (via FTP).
I ended up downloading directly from https://ibdmdb.org/

Hi @CataRivera and @helder, I also downloaded data from https://ibdmdb.org/. Ftp access still don’t work with the username and password mentioned in IBD website.
