CVS commit: basesrc

["Chris G. Demetriou" <cgd%netbsd.org@localhost>]

Module Name:    basesrc
Committed By:   cgd
Date:           Fri Jun 18 23:26:41 UTC 1999

Modified Files:
        basesrc/distrib/utils/sysinst: defs.h net.c

Log Message:
* when encoding an FTP url, if the path starts with a / put a %2F at the
  start of the URL so that the request will start from / (rather than
  relative to the login directory; makes things work better for
  non-anonymous FTP).  To make it clearer what's going on, make the
  default path (used to get distribution bits) relative.  (according
  to the 1.4 LAST_MINUTE file, this is OK.)
* Also, %-encode passwords in FTP URLs (doesn't help actual security, but
  makes it slightly harder to figure out a password by reading over
  somebody's shoulder).
