Those Ant users (of version 1.6.0 or above) who use or who would like to use the <ftp> task against non-unix ftp servers but have found it to fail there should replace the existing version of commons-net.jar on their Ant classpath with this one. It can autodetect the type of server it is accessing and react accordingly.
The only other requirement is that a version of jakarta-oro.jar > 2.0.1 also be on the classpath, but this has been the case since the release of ant 1.6.0 for using the ftp task.
--- Begin Message ---The Jakarta Commons team is pleased to announce the release of version 1.2.0 of the Jakarta Commons/Net component. Commons/Net is an Internet protocol suite Java library which supports Finger, Whois, TFTP, Telnet, POP3, FTP, NNTP, SMTP, and some miscellaneous protocols like Time and Echo as well as BSD R command support. This release adds, for the first time, autodetection of FTP server type when retrieving an FTP listing so that non-unix FTP servers can automatically provide usable listings with valid dates, etc. Server types supported in this are Windows NT, OS2, VMS, OS400. Formerly only unix was supported in this way. This enables its automatic use in Ant's FTP task, for example, for these server types as well as the original unix.
