Description

When the client sends a SYST command, the server responds with "215 Cygwin Type: L8". The createFileEntryParser method of the DefaultFTPFileEntryParserFactory class does not have an entry in that block of if statements there to catch and work with Cygwin. I am using a limited set of ftp commands in the project I'm working on, but so far everything seems to work fine when I alias Cygwin to unix. I'm not sure if there are any other complexities around this, or if there is a better way to do this, but I'm sure y'all will know

Here's what I added:

FTPClientConfig.java

In the constant definitions at the beginning of the class starting at line 140, I added the following:

/**

• Identifier by which a unix emulation-based ftp server is known throughout
• the commons-net ftp system.
  */

public static final String SYST_CYGWIN = "CYGWIN";

DefaultFTPFileEntryParserFactory.java

In the first catch block starting at line 85 in the createFileEntryParser method, I added the following to the existing else if statements:

else if (ukey.indexOf(FTPClientConfig.SYST_CYGWIN) >= 0)

{ parser = createUnixFTPEntryParser(); }
