Thanks for your swift reply, even on Sunday! Method 1
http://ftp.company.com?user=NAME&password=PASSWD&dir=DIR&file=FILE works! but Method 2 ftp://username:[email protected]/DIR/FILE did not, at least in my hands. Anyway, i wonder whether the group on Phabricator would whitelist a domain for use with Method 1. However, they did whitelist a Dutch scanning company domain memorix.nl it says on the GWToolset starting page list of whitelisted domains, perhaps also behind a user/passwd lock...
