Ok, thanks for your answer. The FTP server I need to connect to is strictly compliant with RFC 959. I quote an extract for the LIST command specification: "...The data transfer is over the data connection in type ASCII or type EBCDIC. (The user must ensure that the TYPE is appropriately ASCII or EBCDIC)..." I guess most FTP servers work correctly even if the mode is binary, but this one doesn't. Another possibility would be to set all transfers to ASCII for this FTP connection (as the files I need to transfer are in ASCII), but I don't think that is possible with the current version of VFS. Thanks Guillermo Vasconcelos

I never heard nor seen this behavior. I asked at commons-dev if there is someone who knows more details about it. Unhappily there is no workaround now. --- Mario --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
