Bug Description
Binary package hint: konqueror
SMB and FTP sites that require user authentication cannot be accessed by entering the username and password in the authentication box that comes up when entering an smb or ftp url. The username has to be provided as part of the URL. It seems as the auth-box is messing up the values entered for username and password, as ftp-servers reply with an error message "please provide a password" although a password has been entered.

I am prompted for a password if i access something like
smb://young/homes/
in Konqueror by typing it in the URI field, was this how you were trying?
Unfortunately I don't have any non-anonymous ftp servers to try ftp login on.
