I have login credentials for an FTP server that are in this form:
User: [email protected] Pass: alpha-numberic-password
When attempting to log in, it will not work because of the @ special character. I have tried the %40 trick and the %64 trick and neither worked.
I am trying with FileZilla and this is the only relevant info I found on their forums.
I can get it to work with CuteFTP 8 Home, but that is quite old and I would like to use a different client in the future.
Is there a general setting for this kind of thing that allows @
in the username? Is there a more expansive client that can utilize these credentials?
I realize that @
should not be in the username or password, but that is outside of my control, and people do still do it like this sometimes.
ftp://user:password@host:port/path so that some or all of the parts user : password @ , : password , : port and / path may be excluded.
Special charactersUsernames can contain letters (a-z), numbers (0-9), and periods (.). Usernames cannot contain an ampersand (&), equals sign (=), underscore (_), apostrophe ('), dash (-), plus sign (+), comma (,), brackets (<,>), or more than one period (.)
Could you please try replacing @
with %40
