I found the following from microsofts web site:

WORKAROUNDIf you must pass username and password credentials to the FTP location, use the following method to work around this problem:
Start Outlook 2002.
On the File menu, point to Open, and then click Outlook Data File.
In the Look in a drop-down list box, click Add/Modify FTP Locations.
In the Add/Modify FTP Locations dialog box, enter the name of the FTP site and the username and password information, and then click Add.
Click OK to close the Add/Modify FTP Locations dialog box.
Click Cancel to close the Open Outlook Data File dialog box.
On the Tools menu, click Options.
Click Calendar Options, and then click Free/Busy Options.
Click Publish at my location, and then enter the URL for the FTP location by using a format that is similar to the following example:
ftp://ftp-server-name/path/filename.vfb

Click OK three times.
On the Tools menu, point to Send/Receive, and then click Free/Busy Information.
NOTE: The password for the FTP credentials is only cached during the Microsoft Outlook session. If you quit and then restart Outlook 2002, you must re-enter your password for the FTP location in the Add/Modify FTP Locations dialog box.




Does anyone know if there is a way to make the password stay perminant? Is there a way to put it in the registry so that it is there each time you open Outlook? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
