Cannot connect my FTP

  1. I just opened a new account. I am not able to connect my FTP: ftp.netforit.com using FileZilla but able to connect my Secondary FTP:ftp.netforit.w01.Winhost.com with my ftp account. Can you help me fix this. Thanks.

  2. That's because the domain doesn't point to our name servers yet:
    Domain Name: NETFORIT.COM
    Registrar: GODADDY.COM, INC.
    Name Server: NS1.MAIN-HOSTING.COM
    Name Server: NS2.MAIN-HOSTING.COM
    Name Server: NS3.MAIN-HOSTING.COM
    Name Server: NS4.MAIN-HOSTING.COM​
    The name servers should be set to:
    ns1.Winhost.com
    ns2.Winhost.com
    ns3.Winhost.com​

  4. Response: 530 Login authentication failed means you did connect to the server but the username or password were wrong. You have the username right, so double check your password.
