I'm trying to use ftp, and it's not going well. I get this:

Response: 220---------- Welcome to Pure-FTPd [TLS] ----------
Response: 220-You are user number 13 of 50 allowed.
Response: 220-Local time is now 21:44. Server port: 21.
Response: 220-This is a private system - No anonymous login
Response: 220-IPv6 connections are also welcome on this server.
Response: 220 You will be disconnected after 15 minutes of inactivity.
Command: USER ptbolets@peterboroughlets.x10hosting.com
Response: 331 User ptbolets@peterboroughlets.x10hosting.com OK. Password required
Command: PASS (hidden)
Response: 530 Login authentication failed
Error: Could not connect to server


I am absolutely completely positive that I am using the correct password. I have double and triple checked it. Anyhow, I don't know why I am getting an "authentication failed" message. I'm bloody stumped. If anyone could kindly assist me in this matter, I would greatly appreciate it!

No, I'm using "ptbolets@peterboroughlets.x10hosting.com" as my username.
Edit:
Hey, I got it working!

I was trying to FTP to 74.86.116.190 because connecting to ftp.peterboroughlets.x10hosting.com was not working at all.

So this morning, just for kicks, I was demonstrating the problem to this person I live with, and instead of giving me errors again, ftp.peterboroughlets.x10hosting.com just started working.

I suppose that sometime between when I posted my problem last night and tried to connect this morning, it either magically fixed itself, or someone here went in there and fixed it for me. Whatever the reason, it's all better now! If someone did something to make it work, then I dearly thank you.

Peace,
- Jade
