When configuring FileZilla, you will download an XML file (from cPanel > FTP Accounts) and tool you want to and import it to your FileZilla client. To configure the FileZilla FTP client:
Step 1:
Click the Configure FTP Client link that corresponds to the FTP account you wish to use to connect to your FTP server.
Step 2:
Click the FTP or SFTP link to download the XML file. We recommend that you use SFTP whenever possible, as it is generally more secure than FTP. Note: This step will over-write any previous XML configuration file without warning.
Open your FileZilla FTP client.
Step 4:
Select the Import option from the File menu (File ⇀ Import).
Step 5:
Select the XML file you have just downloaded and click OK.
Step 6:
Click the OK button on the resulting Import Settings window.
Step 7:
Click OK on the resulting Import Successful window.
Step 8:
To open a connection to your FTP server, select the Site Manager feature from the File menu (File ⇀ Site Manager).
Step 9:
Select your domain from the Select Entry menu.
Step 10:
Click the Connect button to connect to your FTP server.
