This is a pretty dumb question, but I can't figure it out:

How can I ftp://xxx to some machine and log in with my
own login/password, that is a non-anonymous login, using
Netscape Navigator?

Thanks...

Michael, thanks for the help. I'm having difficulty with
this when going through an ftp proxy (Apache 1.2b4 server).
When I do it in non-proxy mode it works fine.

You can use help in Netscape and the answer is in the Netscape faq;
ftp://user@password:xxx/<directory>

Hope this helps you

ftp://username:password@host/directory

Better yet:

ftp://username@host/directory/

and NS will ask you for your password. If you have people looking over
your shoulder or something. :^)
