Package: krb5-clients
Version: 1.2.4-5
Severity: normal
Since installing the kerberos 5 clients on a Debian system, Emacs'
ange-ftp has gotten confused by this message:
root@pot# ftp ftp.it.debian.org
Connected to ftp.bofh.it.
220 ready, dude (vsFTPd 1.0.0: beat me, break me)
530 Please login with USER and PASS.
530 Please login with USER and PASS.
KERBEROS_V4 rejected as an authentication type
Name (ftp.it.debian.org:pot):
As you see, before the prompt, two 530 messages are given, which can be
safely ignored. Unfortunately, ange-ftp takes them seriously and fails.
According to RFC 959, however, ange ftp is correct, because a 5xy error
is a permanent error. Is that indeed the case? Is the kerberised ftp
wrong? I think so.
