Hi, I am using Jakarta Commons Net 1.4.1 API to download some files from the FTP Server. The logic is that we are connecting to the FTP Server, changing to a directory, getting the list of all the files in that directory and downloading only the latest file based on the file timestamp. The method [ listNames() or listFiles() ] is usually taking around 30-50 seconds to get a list of all files from a directory. Sometimes (which is not predictable), the program hangs while getting this list of files.
Is there a solution to the problem ? Is there an alternative for these methods ? Please reply soon since the solution is badly required. Thanks in advance, regards, Ramesh V L
