Hi,
since some providers continue to offer users ftp accounts in the form of
email addresses, I could not mirror archives using something like:
$ tla make-archive --mirror [EMAIL PROTECTED] --listing
ftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/public/\{archives\}/2005
A quick fix is to modify pfs-ftp.c:130 from:
hostname = str_chr_index (host, '@');
to
hostname = str_chr_rindex (host, '@');
This would allow all of us unlucky users to login to our servers.
I tested it and it works (at least for me).
A similar fix could be used also for sftp, if necessary.
I can't help thinking that ~/.netrc is the best way to go, though:
easily parseable, allows to use any char you want in usernames and
passwords, and doesn't leave potentially sensible infos in .bash_history
or as tla commands output. What do you think?
Regards,
