<< NICK xx
<< USER ZNCUsername/ZNCServer ZNCUsername/ZNCServer host.name :RealName
>> :irc.znc.in 464 xx :Password required

compared to

<< PASS ZNCUsername/ZNCServer:
<< NICK xx
<< USER xx xx host.name :RealName
>> <success / miles of backlog spam>

A minor difference between the two choices with the user/server:password connecting to ZNC, which is made more obvious when using other modules for authing, for example, http://wiki.znc.in/Certauth
