Here is a part of listing data:
...
'dr-xr-xr-x 4 root system 512 Aug 10 2005 mnt'#$D#$A
'dr-xr-xr-x 2 6170 46 10752 Aug 20 13:34 pub'#$D#$A
'dr-xr-sr-x 7 root staff 512 Jan 20 1994 tips'#$D#$A
...
I see that there are extra spaces for 1st and 3rd lines
because time is not specified.
So, is this a problem of AIX ftp server, which returns a listing data in
incorrect form (non-specified time) or just parser cannot rightly recognize it?
