Hi Twinkle,

Here are some more details:

I have trunk version installed on an Ubuntu Server which is my LAN. Server
is configured for FTP connection. Knowledge Module is installed and
configured using the FTP configuration Wizard.

I can connect to the OpenERP server remotely from a PC and logon to a
database as normal.

When selecting the menu Knowledge management a popup appears with a
proposed URL for the FTP server connection,

If I accept this, by selecting "browse" button, a new browser window opens
but it does not logon onto the database and gives the reported error
message.

The proposed from the FTP server configuration is in the format :

ftp://admin@<your IP address>:8021/<your database name>

If I however remove the user name ("admin" in the example above) and then
press "browse" button" then a pop-up appears so I can add user name and
password. A connection to the fTP server then works OK.

The error is that the username is not accepted as part of the FTP server
login string.

Hope that is clearer?

Regards

Colin
