Connect To Server - FTP changes username character on login

[Bill Koerner]

Binary package hint: nautilus

I am trying to establish a FTP connection using the File Manager - Nautilus application. I select the FTP (login) option. Challenge is that my username is my e-mail address, and it appears that the application is converting the '@' character that is part of my username to a '%40'. I am assuming this is the issue, because I am never able to establish a connection to the server. When I do get the password prompt, it fails and continues to loop.

I have verified a successful FTP connection using the terminal window, but can not get the Nautilus to establish a connection to the FTP server.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the stable release - Oneiric Ocelot. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed. You can find out more about it at http://www.ubuntu.com/download . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.

Pedro,

Thanks for responding.  I am not sure what you are asking me to do?  Are you saying you need me to confirm there is a bug by some other method before someone will investigate it?
