My ftp server which made with wodFTPD.dll, however, by the ftp client tools I cannot find out the hide files in this ftp server.Why this hidden files are not in directory listing? What can I to do?


this web ( http://www.weonlydo.com/index.asp?showform=FTPServer&rnotes=1) said:


hidden files are not returned anymore in directory
listing, unless 'a' switch was used (same as on UNIX servers)

Would you tell me what to use this 'a' switch?

Good luck to you

Hi Liu,


In order to display hidden files you should send:

a

or

-a

parameter with LIST command. Probably LIST command is send without any parameter.

Can you please change that option in your client and let us know how it goes?

I have just tried to send a parameter in LIST command using our wodFtpDLX (FTP client) and it works for me.
