FTP File Interface Plug-In

[IanBradshaw]

Hi, is there any plans to extend the functionality of the ftp plugin to allow sub directories to be browsed? Anytime I try to change directory the screen refreshes and I stay in the same directory. I'm trying to connect to a Unix system version AIX 4.

Also when I try the FTP open option it tries to open the filename with a time stamp in front of the file so I can't open it. I have to firstly removed this timestamp and then it opens fine. This isn't a big problem, I was just wondering if its a bug or if it can be turned off.

thanks,
Ian

You should be able to browse directories just fine. It may be an AIX specific problem. Unfortunately we do not have AIX available. Perhaps I can send you a debug version to tackle the problem?

If that is a way to test it then I'd definitely like to give it a try as it would make my life a whole lot easier. My email address here is ian.bradshaw@glasgow.gov.uk

thanks,

Hi Marco, can you let me know what stage you're at with this problem? Has anyone else had a similar problem with the FTP plugin?

thanks,

Your problem is quite unique

Sorry for the delay though. As promised earlier, I will try to send you something to tackle this.
