172043 - ftp directories with negative times etc.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 170070

(Core Graveyard :: Networking: FTP, defect)

Description

[Michael Mauch]

Ftp directories have wrong times: negative hours and sometimes like 90:35:44,
years are sometimes off by one. And the .message ("Please read the file README"
on ftp.mozilla.org) is not printed at the top of the page. This happens both in
the XUL directory mode and in HTML mode. E.g. on <ftp://ftp.fokus.gmd.de/>, I
can't see the "hidden" files starting with a dot.

As soon as I use the wwwoffle proxy as ftp proxy, the directory listing works as
expected - just a plain ftp directory listing (like "ls -al") with correct
times, .message at the top of the page, .* displayed.
