I can confirm it doesn't work with the following:

cd ftp://ftp.jasc.com/pub/

                 Could not parse:

08-23-01  01:03PM              5840970 AE_GSG_for_Web.exe^M

I press Enter:

                Could not parse:

08-23-01  12:24PM             16956733 AE_Product_Tour.exe^M

...

                Error

More parsing errors will be ignored.

I got the following, but couldn't reproduce:

file /usr/local/src/CVS/GNU/mc/src/treestore.c: line 715 
(tree_store_end_check): assertion `ts.check_name != NULL' failed

With LFTP 2.6.2:

---- Connecting to ftp.jasc.com (66.162.50.18) port 21
<--- 220 jasc-mkta1 Microsoft FTP Service (Version 5.0).

ls looks like:

08-23-01  01:03PM              5840970 AE_GSG_for_Web.exe
...
05-06-02  03:31PM       <DIR>          animations
...

With cd ftp://ftp.jasc.com/ (without pub/) you don't get any
errors but it doesn't list anything.

Other examples:

ftp://ftp.asuscom.de/

---- Connecting to ftp.asuscom.de (212.123.230.102) port 21
<--- 220 EurSrv2 Microsoft FTP Service (Version 5.0).

ftp://ftp.astron.com/

---- Connecting to ftp.astron.com (204.80.150.6) port 21
<--- 220 ftp.astron.com FTP server ready.

I don't know what they're running.

ls /pub/tcsh with LFTP:

-rw-rw-r--  1 christos  christos     968 Jul 23 12:24 Announce-6.12.00
...
drwxrwxr-x  2 christos  christos    1024 Jul 23 12:24 old
...

I'm using CVS 2002-09-20.

BTW, LFTP needs set ftp:auto-sync-mode "icrosoft FTP Service"
