Description Torquil Macdonald Sørensen 2003-03-23 23:06:42 UTC 
Version:           3.1.1 (using KDE KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.3 20030309 (Debian prerelease) 
OS:          Linux

When typing ftp://hostname in the addressbar of konqueror, kio_ftp first tries to log in anonymously, and since the server has no anonymous login, a dialog box appears asking for a user name and password. If I then type in my username and password and click OK, it STILL tries to log in anonymously.

It works fine when I type ftp://username@hostname , and then type the password in the dialog box.

Correction to the title: "on command line" should be "in the addressbar in konqueror"

I've tried to do some debugging. It appears that this truly happens, but it also 
appears to be triggered by multiple connections being used (related to bug #28361) 
 
When debugging, the ioslave tries to log in as anonymous and, when it fails, it asks 
for new credentials and then logs in successfully. That leads me to believe that the 
FTP ioslave works fine. However, it seems that Konqueror launches two ioslaves to 
do the listing, so there are two anonymous logins happening.

Could be the URL completion...

Hello,

This was caused by multiple problems/bugs and both have been fixed in cvs. One was with the URL completion code (KURLCompletion) being too aggresive and the other was the password handling code in kio_ftp which I fixed. I think both of these fixes are available in the 3.1.4 release. I know the kio_ftp fix is in there ; so you might want to update to that release and give it a try. Thanks for the report.
