Oh, I found the message.

use domain.com but if you have ftp. in the DNS you can use that too. But stick to domain.com

When you say you can't FTP, what do you mean? username/password not accepted, no connection? or it connects but then you can't transfer data?

Check your firewall to make sure it allows port 21, which is FTP.

Check your FTP client's settings -- there are two modes: Passive (aka PASV) and ...errr... Not Passive (Active I supposed, but mostly you only get to tick a box that says Use Passive Mode). If you can connect but not transfer files then try one or the other setting.

p.s. you can also use the ip address of your VPS instead of the domain name when entering the FTP server address in your FTP program.
