Folders empty that are not empty

When I connect to a sunsite (sunsite.cnlab-switch.ch) I can't list a folder that has no other folders within. the folder only apears as empty and I checked that it isn't(with other ftp app). This started with this server but it spread and now there are alot of other servers that have this to and I can't find where the bug is in my config or is it a general bug (got the newest version).

thanks for helping

I tryed with the latest developper build but it doesn't work and so I tryed to disable all file listing settings and that changed nothing. I don't now why but perhaps you can try the same server and look wheater you get the same error. Now I'll try to get some other ftp clients because I often use the sunsite.

Try changing pasv mode to port mode.

nope. still notyet. one thing I remaked was, that I can list with ls -l but not in smartftp and I think smartftp list with LIST and that an other client (console ftp) doesn't understand.
thanks alot for your helping!

I get file listing on the 4 main dirs of the site using port mode on default ip most of times, but sometimes failes.

yes me too. seems quite strange. perhaps this could be a bug in smartftp?
but I can't find another server with the same problem (ni fact the problem is I know few servers content so good as this and so I can't figure out if there sould be something in the directory or not).

disable the listing options in the config/favorite.

thanks that worked. it was the -L option for resolve links. but how it got turned on I can't explain (only I use this app on this computer and I didin't). perhaps it was the transfer to an windows xp that damaged it.

thanks alot for the help
