Description Andreas K. Huettel 2006-04-25 14:03:32 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          (as in SuSE 10.0) 
OS:                Linux

I am trying to access a directory on an OpenVMS machine with FTP. With a command line client this works fine, when I use the OpenVMS directory syntax:

huettel@bellini:~> ftp xxx.dimes.tudelft.nl
Connected to xxx.dimes.tudelft.nl.
220 xxx.dimes.tudelft.nl FTP Server (Version 5.3) Ready.
Name (xxx.dimes.tudelft.nl:huettel): blablabla
331 Username blablabla requires a Password
Password:
230 User logged in.
Remote system type is VMS.
ftp> pwd
257 "USER$DISK:[PG5K.MANAGER]" is current directory.
ftp> cd USER$DISK:[PG5K.USERS.HUETTEL]
250-CWD command successful.
250 New default directory is USER$DISK:[PG5K.USERS.HUETTEL]

Trying to use Konqueror and a ftp URL, however, fails:

ftp://blablabla@xxx.dimes.tudelft.nl/USER$DISK:[PG5K.USERS.HUETTEL]

leads to the password prompt, the correct password is accepted, but then the error message
/USER$DISK:[PG5K.USERS.HUETTEL] could not be read 
appears. (this makes sense since the slash at the beginning of the path is wrong in this case.)

Any ideas how to fix this?
Best, Andreas
