Ok, found InMotion 421 info, below. May still be a glitch. I checked FTP sessions and they are at zero. “Try again” in cyberduck still yields 421. The variable seems to be “path.”

I will look and see what might go there and experiment.

  Cyberduck should be able to let you edit the number of connections it is trying to open. You will see in the article you mentioned that Filezilla allows this.

Vry nice, almost worked. In May 2016 in iMac+Yosemite Cyberduck says Connection Failed FTP response 421 received.

So when convenient, and if you know, add to this page what to do in response to 421 error.

Thanks for the great user DIY info.
