Eeek! As Romano pointed out - parse rules. But I'm not so happy that there
is no error generated.
Carl can you try this on the server with the above problem - all it does is
poke in NET-LOG tracing statements to emit the results from LIST and NLST
(file-list really). If the info returned by LIST or NLST is not sensitive it
would good to see it (permissions/names changd for safety if necessary)
and/or perhaps you could send it "off-list".
