There is a big problem with different FTP daemons giving different listing formats. I've spent a considerable amount of time on this issue and have researched it back far enough to the root problem which is, there are no set FTPd standard.
My suggestion is to setup ftpd server type checking at the beginning of your code, then forward through a sub that is specific to the listing format that you will get from that ftpd. Use regular expression, then let hang dry. - Simon mitosis.com
