Hello, I know the NLST command and its options are a popular topic, and I seem to recall this subject coming up on the list recently. I can't find anything in the archives though, so apologies if this question has been asked before. Should NLST support a -rt to list files by reverse order? It does not appear to on my build. My testing suggests that -a is the only option supported by NLST. The ListOptions directive page seems to suggest that it should support options, while this bug suggests that 'sensible' options for NLST are supported. http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D2322 I do not have any ListOptions in my configuration, so I don't think that is the problem. Options to LIST work correctly. Does anyone else see this behaviour, and is it expected, or a bug? Here's an FTP session transcript illustrating the problem. The client is the the Solaris 8 standard FTP client which translates 'ls' into NLST. ftp> ls 200 PORT command successful 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for file list test1 test2 test3 test4 test5 226 Transfer complete 35 bytes received in 0.12 seconds (0.29 Kbytes/s) ftp> ls -t 200 PORT command successful 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for file list test1 test2 test3 test4 test5 226 Transfer complete remote: -t 35 bytes received in 0.014 seconds (2.42 Kbytes/s) ftp> ls -rt 200 PORT command successful 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for file list test1 test2 test3 test4 test5 226 Transfer complete remote: -rt 35 bytes received in 0.11 seconds (0.30 Kbytes/s) ftp> quit Thanks, Richard Gray - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - = - - - - - - - This message is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the = designated recipient(s) named above.
