[jira] Commented: (NET-250) DefaultFTPFileEntryParserFactory Does not work with Netware FTP server returning "NETWARE TYPE: L8"

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NET-250?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12666004#action_12666004 ] 

Jukka Zitting commented on NET-250:
-----------------------------------

This was filed as IO-188, but I moved this to NET-250 since this is apparently a commons-net issue.

> We have just being trying to upgrade from the old NetComponents-1.3.8 to the new apache commons-net-2.0  The only thing we really needed to do is to change some imports and our project compiled.
> The problem is that listFiles does not work any more with our netware ftp server! I have done some debugging and found that the problem is when creating a FTPFileEntryParser from the class DefaultFTPFileEntryParserFactory it returns a Unix entry parser due the code:
>             if ((ukey.indexOf(FTPClientConfig.SYST_UNIX) >= 0) 
> 	            		|| (ukey.indexOf(FTPClientConfig.SYST_L8) >= 0))
> 	            {
> 	                parser = createUnixFTPEntryParser();
> 	            }
> I understand that the SYST_L8 is used to identify that the system is unknown and so per default takes the UNIX server, however our FTP server returns "NETWARE TYPE: L8" and should really be identified as a netware server. maybe this L8 test could be done at the end of these massive if, else statements?
> In the meanwhile i have created by own FTPFileEntryParserFactory which does this and it works. The question is, is it a bug and should this change also be done in the commons?
