Debugging for bug #56289, I've found this to happen as well. I could not find a way out. Anyways, this is a contention because, once a username has been accepted, the FTP server does not allow going back to an unauthenticated state without reconnection. It should, however, accept the change in username and, in case it does differ, disconnect and connect again for the new username. Subject: Re: Unable to edit username after retrying the ftp login

IIRC Dawit wrote the "disable the user field" code. Dawit, can you explain it?
I remember seeing this problem too, and I don't see why (in the case of FTP
at least), it shouldn't be possible to edit the login name.
Hello, Fixed and backported to the current stable version. Thanks for the report. Regards, Dawit A.

Yes, basically it was intended to prevent the user from changing the username if the URL (s)he entered was ftp://user@host. Fixed in CVS will backport to the stable branch. Regards, Dawit A. |
