I have no access to a VAX any longer (for 15 years or so), and from
reading the sources in ange-ftp.el I cannot find the problem.
Could you, please, apply the following:
(require 'ange-ftp)
(require 'trace)
(dolist (elt (all-completions "ange-ftp-" obarray 'functionp))
(trace-function-background (intern elt)))
Then rerun your test and show the contents of the buffers
*ftp ...*
*trace-output*
Check the buffers, that they do not contain sensitive information like
your password, before sending.
