I am attempting to setup transfer areas for our clients via our NetBSD =
firewall. I would like them to use the ftp syntax under say NetScape of:

ftp://USERNAME:PASSWORD@ftp.whatever.com

I seem to be able to drag off of Windows explorer to the Netscape window =
but it tell me that the request was unsupported:

The following error was encountered:=20

     Unsupported request=20

This means that:=20

    This request method is not supported for this protocol.

Any idea how I can get a ftpd daemon that will work ? Is it a config =
thing or do I need a different ftp daemon.

Scott...
