I frequently use Emacs to access remote files over FTP.
That only works if the remote site uses the good old unix format.
Some sites use the M$ format and can not be read by (my) emacs.
Is there some workaround other than bribing the provider into using the
unix format, which is unfortunately not always possible?
There must be some elisp code out there to handle that format?
Please advise,
TIA,
Guido

Could you please show the contents of the ange-ftp buffer of such an attempt?

I listed the httpdocs so that you have an idea about the format used to
display regular files.
