library throws an exception in case the SYST command is not known or the result 
is not known by the implementation

                 Key: NET-440
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NET-440
             Project: Commons Net
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: FTP
    Affects Versions: 3.0.1
            Reporter: s
            Priority: Minor


The FTP client uses the SYST command to determine the list output.
This can fail in two ways:

- a ParserInitializationException in case the response of the server is not 
known by apache.

- When the response to SYST command is 502 command unknown (the command is 
optional after all - http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc959.txt) the client throws an 
IOException.

Can't it just default to UNIX for these type of ftp servers?
