I am beginning the work of tying the selection of a specific FTPFileEntryParser in commons-net to the output of the SYST command on that system. (getSystemName() is a wrapper around SYST). The goal of this is to enable clients of this code (such as Ant) to be able to select specific parsers without tying themselves too closely to the internals of commons-net, i.e., knowing the package names and class names of each of the parsers. To that end, I would like to compile a list of SYST/getSystemName() outputs on each of the different system types, so we can code a mapping for this. Eventually, it may even lead to an auto-detect functionality. I know that a default unix FTP server will return "UNIX". Will those who use this code on other systems be so kind as to help me fill in this table?
