The progress of decimal points returning to temperature is nice, but the amount of time it took to accomplish is mind boggling. I check on the status FTP a couple of times a week. Today I made a typo in the login name and then conducted and experiment. Here are the results -
Connected to 52.36.136.128.
220---------- Welcome to Pure-FTPd [privsep] [TLS] ----------
220-You are user number 378 of 10000 allowed.
220-Local time is now 16:52. Server port: 21.
220-This is a private system - No anonymous login
220 You will be disconnected after 60 seconds of inactivity.

530 Login authentication failed
Login failed.
I use "groundwunder" for a user name just in case "wunderground" was/is an actual user. Anyhow, it says that user name is "OK". I won't mention what I used for a password but it is related to male cattle byproducts. We've all been assuming that the password authentication is the problem when it is the whole login credential being actually recognized is the problem. You could probably get the same result using Abraham Lincoln, Jimmy Kimmel or Rush Limbaugh.
Another thing I noticed is that the local time is four hours ahead of my local time here on the East Coast. I guess that puts the server somewhere in the Atlantic off the coast of England, Spain, Portugal or Africa. I can't believe the servers would be in the Azores or Cabo Verde.
If you are lucky enough to have a camera that worked prior to the "upgrade" it will probably work, but if it's a newly created camera you're SOL, and that doesn't involve anything related to the Sun.
Caveat - It is possible that authentication doesn't occur until after both the user name and password are entered, but if that's the case it's a pretty weak system.
