Hi there

I have downloaded an evaluation copy of WS_FTP Pro 8.02T with a view to 
recommending it to my customers who are increasingly requesting secure FTP.

I am running ftp server wu_ftpd 2.8.0 on linux kernel 2.4.22.

I am using explicit SSL (AUTH SSL) on port 21.

The connection works fine and is logged thus on the server:

diva ftpd[12101]: TLS connection using cipher EXP-EDH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA (40 
bits)

Problem however is that the directory listing is being truncated after 1036 
bytes:

150 Opening ASCII mode secure data connection for directory listing.
transferred 1036 bytes in < 0.001 seconds, 8093.750 Kbps ( 1011.719 Kbps), 
transfer succeeded.
226 Transfer complete.

If I press the DirInfo button I get:

-r

which you can see has indeed been truncated.  As a result, in addition to 
most files not being listed at all in the list pane proper, there is a 
spurious listing of a file "-r"!

If I set up an identical profile i.e. to the same server with same user 
account etc but using a plain non-SSL connection, everything works fine:

150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for directory listing.
transferred 6751 bytes in < 0.001 seconds, 52742.188 Kbps ( 6592.773 Kbps), 
transfer succeeded.
226 Transfer complete

i.e. the full 6751 bytes of the directory listing have been captured.  Ditto, 
DirInfo is full and correct and all files and directories are displayed 
correctly in the list pane proper.

OTOH, I can get and put large Mb sized files over the SSL connection without 
any problems!  The problem seems to be restricted to the directory listing 
over an SSL connection.

Needless to say, this problem is a showstopper since if you can't see files 
in the directory listing, you can't "get" them!

Any advice will be appreciated.

Best regards
