Only 25 directory changes in one FTP session?

Hi

I'm writing a small application that scans

directories on a ftp server.

However after 25 changeWorkingDirectory(directory)

or listFiles(directory)

the scanning thread just freezes.

If I do a

connecting -> login -> changeDirectory -> listFiles() ->disconnect

reconnecting -> login -> changeDirectory -> listFiles() -> disconnect

etc.

...

it works, even for more than 25 directories (I stopped after 100)

Of course it's much slower.

Does anybody know whether this is an api issue (I Use

Jakarta's Common-Net) or a ftp server problem?

Do I have to change the API?

Can I configure the FTP-Client to allow more than 25 changes?

Or is it the server blocking after 25 changes?

thx in advance
