The remote server is running Serv-U. We could see "220 Serv-U FTP Server v6.1 for WinSock ready..." in the greeting message.
If the directory name contain SPACE characters, such as "This is a directory", ange-ftp can't CD to that dir. And I find out that the server understand this command: CD "This is a directory" but it don't understand CD This\ is\ a\ directory But ange-ftp can only compose command as the latter one. I don't know if this is a emacs bug, or because the server is ill implemented. But other popular ftp client such as CUTE-FTP don't have this problem. ------------------------------------------------------------ If emacs crashed, and you have the emacs process in the gdb debugger, please include the output from the following gdb commands: `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
