The problem was that I had ange-ftp-program set but not ftp-program, so the ...\system32\ftp.exe was being used when I issued M-x ftp. What I wanted was to upload (send) and not necessarily open remote file. Anyway when I type /ftp: tramp loads and then the rest of host/path/file, passwd, finally opens remote file locally.
