Never tried it but feeling creative today
How about rsh to the remote machine to start a script that does the long
listing and ftp's back to your machine

I wrote some shell scripts that do something similar. Here is the sequence
of events: On host running the control process, run a script that resides on
remote server containing the logic to generate a file with the information
needed using rsh command. This remote script would also contain logic
I finally got the ls -l command with ftp working. It didn't like having the
remotedirectory specified so I just do a cd to the remote directory and then
ls -l with the local file name.
Here is a snippet from the script I am running right now
# set variables
SITE_DIR=$1; export SITE_DIR
