Ok, my mailing list delivery was set to 'disabled' so I never got any replies :). So just replying to what I read in the archives.
I get the issue only with Transmit, when it executes the 'LIST -a' command. So that may be different than the ls command that seems to be working for Chris. Interestingly, in the most recent version of Transmit, the LIST command is no longer used: "LIST -a" is no longer sent every time regardless of hidden files setting Since this is a major, paid update, I am still using the older Transmit that executes the LIST command. Maybe there's a pref setting that can turn this off, I'll look into that. When I use the command line ftp, I have no problems, although I have not tried the LIST command there. I am using OS 10.5.8, on a PPC. - Koen. On Fri, May 28, 2010 at 10:44 PM, Koen van der Drift <koenvanderdr...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Chris, > > Did you have a chance to look at this?
