No dir listin after connect

I didn't have this problem until resently. I wanted to get a file off my pc the lazy way without walking upstairs so I connected like normal in passive mode ftp via andftp. As usual it connected with the usual output at the bottom of the screen and the "Go to up directory" appeared as usual in the dir tree. The dir listing told me I was in the normal /home/sin dir that I set it to but under the go to button it was blank and a blank notification popped up and slowly faded out. I tried reinstalling, changing dirs, and changing every option there is. Ftp from the terminal doesn't work with or without su so I can't test it there. I'm connecting through wifi and have no data plan through a G1 and latest updates. Anyone know what's going on?

Nevermind... I'm just an idiot. Never thought to check the server. I resently installed kde to diagnose a problem on ubuntuforums and when I uninstalled it left me no choice but to let it remove a bunch of random software (removed foobillard... umm... ok) including my ftp server. Sorry for wasting your time.

no, but the default directory ,as specified by the ftp server does show up correctly - just no files or subdirectories that do exist. ie i can see them with ftp client on pc.

Could you provide a testing FTP account to support(at)lysesoft(dot)com ?
We're working on AndFTP 1.3 and we're fixing issues reported by end-users.

SYSTEM command on your FTP returns NETWARE Type: L8

Type: L8 is considered as Unix compliant for AndFTP so we're using a Unix parsed and it does not work. If we force the Netware parser then it works (see below). Could you remove 'Type: L8' from your FTP system signature ?
