[Babeldoc-devel] Question regarding FTP scanner

[David G. <dg...@co...>]

Gentlemen,

I'm trying to set up the FtpScanner, but it is crashing.  The stack trace and 
config filre are shown below.  The stack trace show that MsFtpFileListParser 
was called,and the source code indicates that the FtpScanner has been 
optimized for Microsoft FTP.  Does the FtpScanner also work with 
non-Microsoft FTP servers?  The one I'm accessing is on an AS/400, but I've 
used manual FTP clients to it prevously without problems.


Thanks,

David
