Would SAMBA/CIFS work for what you are doing? That is, if you are only
sharing files would it work?

Subject: Need help with CurlFTPfs
I have a need to connect to an HP3000 host via ftp to perform some
modestly intricate remote processing on a system that really is not
meant to do this via ftp (which is the only remote protocol I am
aware of that is common to both the the HP3000 and CentOS). I would
like to be able to treat this connection as a mounted file-system.
To this end I have installed curlftpfs on the CentOS host which will
be controlling the process.
My problem is that MPEiX has a user.account type of security model
and the HP3000 FTP server therefore requires that the user name be
sent in the form userid.account and the associated passwords in the
form userpw,acctpw. I have tried this:
curlftpfs -o user=userid.acct:userpw,acctpw host.domain.tld
The userid and account are recognized by the FTP service but the
passwords are not. What I see is this:
]$ curlftpfs -v -o user='userid.acct:userpw,acctpw' host.domain.tld
* Couldn't find host host.domain.tld in the .netrc file, using defaults
* About to connect() to host.domain.tld port 21
* Trying 192.168.1.102 ... * connected
* Connected to host.domain.tld (192.168.1.102) port 21
< 220 HP ARPA FTP Server [A0012H15] (C) Hewlett-Packard Co. 2000
[PASV SUPPORT]
> USER userid.account
< 331 Password required for USERID.ACCT. Syntax: userpass,acctpass
> PASS userpw
< 331 Password required for USERID.ACCT. Syntax: [,]acctpass
* Access denied: 331
* Closing connection #0
Error connecting to ftp: Access denied: 331
I know that .netrc has an option for providing an account password
in addition to a user password:
#.netrc
machine host.domain.tld
login userid.acct
password userpw
account acctpw
However, this produces exactly the same session dialogue as above.
How does one automatically pass the account password to the HP3000
from a Linux box using the standard Linux ftp client?
Removing the account password is not an option.
