Description Adolfo González Blázquez 2004-01-08 01:58:08 UTC 
When accesing an ftp site using login name like: user@dom.com and password
like: pass123, everything on the uri
(ftp://user@dom.com:pass123@ftp.dom.com/ ) gnome-vfs refuses to connect.

It might work if you escape the @ (using a %xx notation, I don't
remember the exact code). I'll have to look at the code to figure out
if it's supposed to work or not.
Comment 3 Adolfo González Blázquez 2004-01-09 11:17:36 UTC 
I tried scaping the @ (code %40, at least for Mozilla and Epiphany).
Didn't work.
Comment 4 Alexander Larsson 2004-01-15 09:40:57 UTC 
escaping the @ is the way you're supposed to handle this. However, we
currently don't handle this anyway, because we don't threat the user
field as escaped, even though its copied straight from the escaped uri.

The fix for this will be pretty large, going through all uses of
password/user and making sure we're escaping/unescaping correctly.

This bug still exists on gnome-vfs 2.6.1. Is there anyway to avoid this??
