I get the following error when I try to use Filezilla to connect to newly created domain:

Connection attempt failed with "EAI_NODATA - No address associated with nodename"

I purchased domain name from "Bigrock.com" and purchased net space from "125mb.com". I have already changed the name servers in the cpanel of "bigrock" to the "125mb" name-servers. I have also uploaded the files in cpanel of "125mb".

When I open filezilla, I provide values as shown here:

host : koshh.co.in (this is the domain name I purchased)
username : *******
password : *******
Port : (default)
