Tried setting net:persist-retries to 1, 2, 3 and 10. On 1-3 nothing changed,
but with 10 the script just stalls and nothing happens. 

Current line:
lftp -e "debug off -o /dev/null && set ftp:retry-530 "" && set
net:max-retries 2 && set net:persist-retries 2 && site $cmd && quit" -u
$user,$pass -p $port $host`;

One thing here, both ftp:retry-530 and net:persistas-retries seems to be
settings that are in use when CONNECTED to the server. My problem with the
fatal error is when I tries to connect to a server that is offline.

        net:persist-retries (number)
               ignore  this number of hard errors. Useful to login to buggy
ftp
               servers which reply 5xx when there is too many users.
