PASS command fails from within program using FTPAPI FTP_Conn(), but works from IBM FTP Client

["Scott Schollenberger" <sschollenberger@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

   Scott --



   I was wondering if you have seen this behavior before or if you have
   any suggestions for troubleshooting it further.



   If we login with the vendor-supplied user and password from the IBM
   FTP Client, we have no problems.

   However, our FTP program using FTPAPI always receives the 530 error
   when it runs.

   I have re-checked the program many times and the user and password are
   correctly coded on the ftp_Conn() call.

   (I have obscured the actual user and password in the logs below.)

   One thing "strange" about this vendor is that their user must be sent
   in quotes since it is in two parts, like a domain and user."



   FTPAPI joblog:



   0: FTPAPI version 2.2 released on 2005-09-20
   3: 220 FileZilla Server version 0.9.12 beta
   3: > USER "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/yyyyyyyyyyy"
   3: 331 Password required for "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/yyyyyyyyyyy"
   3: > PASS **********
   3: 530 Login or password incorrect!





   IBM FTP Client log:



   > open
   alertnowlogin.com

     Connecting to host ALERTNOWLOGIN.COM at address 216.27.92.162 using
   port 21.

   > "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/yyyyyyyyyyy"

     >>> USER "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/yyyyyyyyyyy"

     331 Password required for "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/yyyyyyyyyyy"
     >>> PASS
   ********
     230 Logged

     >>>
   SYST

     UNIX emulated by
   FileZilla



   I ran our program and FTPAPI in debug and visually checked the
   password, just before the SendLine() call is made.



   Any help would be appreciated.



   Thanks, Scott
