I discovered that LFTP is unable to login if you have passwords with special characters, in my case # (%23) and & (%26).
I am aware that lftp expects URL encoded passwords at least when you specify full ftp URLs but in this case I do specify the passwords inside config file using lines like: user ftp://[email protected] mypassword I tried both encoded and unencoded and LFTP fails to login in both cases. Longing in with other solutions works without problems. Thanks, /sorin
