Phil Dicke commented on NET-557:
--------------------------------
Obvously it was important enough to include in the original constructor. The
whole point of that argument is to mask the username. Does it do it? No
> FTPClient Login suppression inconsistent

> Key: NET-557
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NET-557
> Project: Commons Net
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: FTP
> Affects Versions: 3.3
> Environment: Window 7, Java 7
> Reporter: Phil Dicke
> Priority: Minor
>
> The following code prints out the user name in one instance and masks it in
> the other. The password is masked in both cases. I would prefer the user
> name to be masked in both cases as well.
> {code}
> FTPClient client = new FTPClient();
> client.addProtocolCommandListener(new PrintCommandListener(System.out, true));
> client.connect(host);
> client.login(user, pass);
> {code}
> Output (Notice the user name is printed on the response)
> {code}
> 220 Microsoft FTP Service
> USER *******
> 331 Password required for ftpTest.
> PASS *******
> 230 User ftpTest logged in.
> {code}
