No password prompt for FTP login #209

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Set up new Favorite FTP site (password required)
2. Input all relevant details (server, username etc.)
3. Attempt to mount new server.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Should mount server, but gives an 'Access denied: 530' error. The MacFusion
log shows:
  New: Enter host password for user 'myusername': 
  New: Error connecting to ftp: Access denied: 530 

Clearly it is wanting my password, but I am never presented with a prompt
to enter it.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Version 1.2 Beta 1 (1.1.268) OS X 10.4.10

Please provide any additional information below.

I too get the same errors, not a chance to input user password.  Previous 
versions
sometimes worked with the same servers, but some had permissions problems and 
were
more or less unusable (could not get into any directories due to access 
privileges).

Whilst we await developer input, as a temporary workaround, try using 
MacFusion nightly 20070617 revision 265.dmg 
from <http://code.google.com/p/macfusion/downloads/list?can=1> 

(Ignore MacFusion nightly 1.1.268.dmg — in retrospect I find that this, too, 
has issues with FTP connections.)

One solution that I've been using is to, at the username prompt, enter 
<username>:<password>.  This results in 
a successful connection and is a lot safer than using nightlies.  Good luck 
guys!

Caution, please: entering your password alongside your user name will write 
your password in clear text to your 
MacFusion preferences. 

(In any case, FTP is not a secure protocol.)
