This is a dupe of bug 244720. Reporter: the workaround is to create an empty
listing.xml on the server.
Depends on: 244720
bug 244720 is about http And I don't know if Apache creates this file while an
FTP server never creates "listing.xml"
listing.xml is a file created by the roaming code.

Both are probably dups of bug 244589, have to check.

It isn't getting created automatically - Linux/Apache/mod_roaming

If it exists - even as 0 bytes - it works.  (I fixed this with 'touch listing.xml')

BTW - I know I'm reporting bugs, but I want to thank you (Ben) again for the
work on this.  I really hope this is enabled by default in 1.8 - roaming was one
of the features that set Netscape apart, and it is nice to have it back in Mozilla.
