I guess I did remember the syntax and leads to a second question. Is there an escape sequence that allows you to use a password that contains an "@"?
The password in this instance is the e-mail address that one used to registered when one open an account. Personally, I would have used FTP and be done with it. The user was insistent on using a web browser and the ftp method.
I have Squid-2.5STABLE6 installed. The additional "@" appears to confuse Squid although its hard to tell what failed from the logs.
In the previous millennium, I recall using the FTP method with Squid and passing the user's login ID and password. Yesterday, a user needed to use a login ID and password to retrieve content. I couldn't remember how to do it.
