 * Hello,
 * On a 2 of my websites I receive this message on the WP Remote website:
 * Your site’s setup is not configured to allow writing files on the server and 
   your site does not support any connection methods.
 * These sites are hosted on a dedicated server. I have 10 sites that are setup 
   with WP Remote and all work ok except 3 of them. Two get the above message which
   I dont know how to solve. The third is stuck at “There is a new version of WP-
   Remote” and despite it being up to date still gives me this message.
 * Here’s some additional information:
 * Site 1 is a normal site. It has Better WP-Security. I have verified that the 
   security plugin isnt the issue (I deactivated it) and have also made the recommended
   adjustments to allow it to work with wp remote.
 * Site 2 is a normal site /w SSL encryption on certain pages. IT has Better WP-
   Security again same settings were used as previous site.
 * I can rule out SSL and Better WP Security as the problem as I:
 * A. Have another SSL site that has the same settings and the one Im having and
   issue with and it works fine.
 * B. The 7 sites that are working properly with WP Remote all use Better Wp-Security
   and WP Remote side by side without issue.
 * Finally (and unrelated to the above) I get the following message on the WP Remote
   site A LOT and even though it says its sent to you I wanted to make note of it
   here:
 * The WP Remote API request failed, the wp remote team have been notified of this.

 * I’m also getting “Your site’s setup is not configured to allow writing files 
   on the server and your site does not support any connection methods”, only on
   1 of my 20 sites. It’s on DreamHost shared hosting, but I have 2 other DreamHost
   sites that are working fine.
