Playstation 2 FTP server won't transfer directory listing

My gut feel is "LIST -a" isn't supported using uLaunchELF's embedded FTP server.

Thanks for your report. I'll check it.

This has been fixed in 4.0.4.

I need to connect to an old FTP server that only supports active mode.

When using active mode, WinSCP must send the PORT commmand, otherwise I can't get the directory listing.

I tried with FileZilla with active mode selected and it works without problems, so I presume the bug is not in the LIST command but in the PORT command.

Thanks.

Can you post a log file showing the problem?

Hello.

Further tests made with several FTP clients, namely, Filezilla, CuteFTP, wget, Total Commander and WinSCP, shows that the problem lies in the listing format of the server.

I could only get the remote listing correctly with Total Commander, after defining the server type.
Check the screen dump of the Total Commander option "Define server type" for a directory listing format send by this server.
