When using FTP servers that require a password, eg: ftp://user123@127.0.0.1 you
are required to enter your password (assuming the account requires one). But
you have to re-enter the password at each directory that you change to. So for
example you login to your own ftp you would type ftp://wsbg@127.0.0.1 and you
are given a prompt for your password. You enter the password and you can
continue. You select a directory, but again you are asked for your password
again. Indeed, it seems that every time you want to switch directories you are
again asked for your password if the directory isn't cached. The problem can be
fixed (a temporary fix) by using login:password@127.0.0.1 instead of just
login@127.0.0.1, so wsbg:mypassword@127.0.0.1 would fix it, while wsbg@127.0.0.1
would exhibit the problem.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.enter <YourLogin>@YourFTPServer.com (login name must have password defined)
2.enter password
3.try to change directory
Actual Results:
It asked me to enter my password seeming for every single directory that wasn't
in my cache.
Expected Results:
Asked me for my password once, cache it in memory (not disk), and not ask for it
again until I logout of the FTP server.
did you do a search for existing bugs? if you did, you might have missed it
because it did not contain "password". I've changed the summary to make it more
searchable, please let me know if it needs additional clarification.
Please mark this bug verified if you agree that the two bugs describe the same
problem.
