FTP SSL: Don't want user id / password prompt.

Ok, we've got ftp working to Wells Fargo.  And it is using SSL.  According 
to them it should stop asking for user id and password.  According to IBM, 
they're nuts, besides it's their server that stops and asks for the user 
id and password.

So, do we go the http api route that others do, or, is there some way, on 
our end, to tell ftp to not ask for a user id and password?

ps:  I am not talking about the trick of blank lines in your ftp script to 
allow you to put the user id and password in the script.  I am talking 
about not having to use a user id and password - period.
