I dont know what the problem is... I have a site on websamba too and I'm getting the same message. I'm thinking their servers are messed up (yet again)... I cant recommend a good free one, as all of the free hosts tend to have the same attributes (slow, downtime, etc) - http://www.brinkster.com or http://www.domaindlx.com are a couple I know of off the top of my head, but websamba is really the only one with FTP I think, dont quote me on that.
