ftp authenticate in url?

Hi,

in mac osx, you can connect to ftp from the finder.
But the problem is that it doesn't asks for a login and password.

I already have seen that you can login by typing the login and password in the ftp url.

But dont remember :(

So do you know how i can do this?


greets,

ftp://username:password@hostname/path (but most browsers explicitely do not support this anymore due to security problems...)
