Server Unable to get FTP redirect to work

I've been trying for hours to get this thing to work. The only time it actually does work is when I use skillz public redirect, never whenever I enter my own FTP in the redirect. In the RedirectToURL line I put in ftp://username: password@host/kf/Compressed/ Which stores a compressed map(.uz2) of WestlondonNight_v7(as it doesn't have any custom textures). It downloads it at a snails pace, 0.1% per second. I'd doubt anyone would join a server that installs custom content at a staggeringly slow pace. Is there any way to get this thing working? What am I doing wrong?

The redirect only uses HTTP. It wont work with FTP. Install a web server and use HTTP.

Sounds like a pain to setup a webserver...I've only received a free FTP with the server and thought it was possible to be able to get an ftp or dropbox working. Hey Skillz, can you host a private one or nah? I'm also thinking of using the public redirect you've got to add my own files.
