Allow the Interactive Login to keep the Password

[nzw19lh]

We have just had two factor authentication added to a number of servers.

Using Filezilla, when I select interactive login on the connection settings, the password field is lost, I can understand why as that makes it truly interactive.

I have another (nowhere near as good as Filezilla!) that when I select Interactive login, it allows me to keep the password.

This means that when I log in through this tool (PortX), it returns the 2fa response and I do not have to keep getting the obscure passwords that I have for each site.

It is VASTLY quicker that the current Filezilla implementation. I hope this feature request meets with your approval.

Use the "Ask for Password" logon type to remember the password.

I believe that you have missed the point.

I am after a combination of normal and interactive.

For example, without 2fa, normal login with the saved password logs straight into the system.

With Filezilla's current interactive log in,

• I have to add the password (from a separate Password manager as Filezilla does not allow it)
• then select the form of 2fa
• then enter the 2fa response

If Filezilla allowed the password to be saved as part of the interactive logon, it saves having to open a password manager, find the entry, copy and then paste the password.
