I am unable to get NCSA Telnet 2.3 (or BYU Telnet 2.3.1) to recognize
my password for FTP.  In config.tel I have:
ftp=yes
passfile="mydisk:teldir:ftppass"

I ran the telpass program (version 1.0), set up a user named robin and
set a password, saved the file as ftppass and quit the telpass program.

When I telnet to a (unix) host then ftp back to my mac, I get:
220 Macintosh Resident FTP server, ready
Name (132.241.80.104:robin): robin
Password (132.241.80.104:robin):
331 Password required
530 Login failed
ftp: Login failed

What am I doing wrong?
