From your suggestions I tried every combination I could think of and 
nothing works. 

These two got the closest. I got a login prompt, entered my password, 
login went OK, then "Couldn't connect to host tigerflag.com":

ftp://MyUsername:password@tigerflag.com
ftp://MyUsername:password@ftp.tigerflag.com

These couldn't login at all. "Server replied: 503 Authentication 
failed" for all of them:

ftp://anonymous:password@tigerflag.com
ftp://anonymous:password@ftp.tigerflag.com
ftp://username:password@tigerflag.com
ftp://username:password@ftp.tigerflag.com

Just to be sure, I tried ncftp in a shell:
ncftp open -u tigerflag.com  
using the same username and password and had no problem.

Any ideas?

Thanks again,
