[Duplicity-talk] FTP not working

[Tim Riemenschneider]

Hi,

I think I have a problem with the ftp-backend. collection-status shows
as empty, but there are backups on the server. I think ncftpls is not
working correctly.

When I do a interactive login, ls works (names removed):

server:~/backup# ncftp -u USER ftp://BACKUPHOST
NcFTP 3.2.1 (Jul 29, 2007) by Mike Gleason (http://www.NcFTP.com/contact/).

ncftp / > ^D

However, ncftpls seems to not work: (commandline taken from debug-output
of duplicity):
