- TITLE :How to Format Directory Output with FTP Server
- PRODUCT :Windows NT
- PROD/VER:3.10
- OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
- KEYWORDS:
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- The information in this article applies to:
-
- - Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
- - Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause
- serious, system-wide problems that may require you to
- reinstall Windows NT to correct them. Microsoft cannot
- guarantee that any problems resulting from the use of
- Registry Editor can be solved. Use this tool at your own
- risk.
-
- Some File Transfer Protocol (FTP) client software makes assumptions
- based on the formatting of directory list information. The Windows NT
- FTP server provides some flexibility for client software that requires
- directory formatting similar to UNIX systems.
-
- To set the default for the format of directory listings for new FTP
- users, change the value of MsDosDirOutput using the Registry Editor
- (REGEDT32.EXE). MS DOS-style listings are a value of 1 (the default),
- and UNIX-style listings are a value of 0.
-
- The path to the MsDosDirOutput entry is as follows:
-
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\FtpSvc
- \Parameters
-
- Users can toggle this setting with the site-specific command
- DIRSTYLE. On most FTP client implementations (including the
- Windows NT FTP client), users enter a command similar to
-
- quote site dirstyle
-
- to get this effect.
