Which FTP client command are you using to "see
the list"?

Which UNIX? Which FTP server?

Which PUT and GET commands?

Whose TCP/IP product? Which version?

Which VMS version?

Have you tried passive mode?
Try
FTP> SET PASSIVE ON
before your commands.

Ito,

make sure you have files in your unix home directory.
Also as Mr. Richard suggestion, set paasive mode on and then issue couple of commands.

FTP> PASV
FTP> ls
or
FTP> cd to some othe dire
FT> ls

Is this quetsion related to VMS or some Unix? In the latter case, you may be better off in another forrum (hpux or Linux)
