I'm trying to use MC to save a stack to a password protected directory on
a server.  I created a designated username/password for the directory and
I am using the past-offered convention for assembling the destination
filepath:

put the fileName of the topStack into tSourceURL
put ("ftp://"; & tName & ":" & tPass & \
   "@ftp.myserver.com/special/mystack.mc") into tDestURL
put url ("binfile:"&tSourceURL) into url tDestURL

The result is an error from the server reading "Error 550. Access denied
by ACL."  I assume this means the server is denying access to the
username/password I'm supplying in the above string.

You're not only trying to access a directory but also to write to it, maybe the user doesn't have write permissions like the admin.



However, I have no problem accessing the destination directory using an FTP tool with the same login info provided in tName and tPass. Also, if I replace the tName/tPass variables with those of the server's admin login info, the script works fine.

So I have to assume the server is expecting something that I (or MC) is
not providing in the case of the designated username/password.  Any ideas
how I troubleshoot this?
