Update of /cvsroot/python/python/dist/src/Doc/lib
In directory usw-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv16049

Modified Files:
	libftplib.tex 
Log Message:
SF patch #497420 (Eduardo Pérez): ftplib: ftp anonymous password

Instead of sending the real user and host, use "anonymous@" (i.e. no
host name at all!) as the default anonymous FTP password.  This avoids
privacy violations.
