[Tutor] Need Simple Inheritance example

[Tim Johnson]

Hello All:
    Using python 2.1 on RH 7.2, Win98

    I'd like to build an FTP object that initializes with
    Host, login, and password as elements of a list, and
    then overloads the transfer methods with progress reporting.

    I've begun with the following code:
    class FtpNew(FTP):
        def __init__(self,_profile):
            self.login(profile[1],profile[2])

    and I would like to initialize the instance as

    params = ['www.host.com','login','password']
    ftp = FtpNew(params)

    I'm getting error messages about 'profile' being an undefined 
    global.
    Can anyone help me out here?
    Best regards
