Subject: EFS to a Win95 box using Hummingbird Ftpd?

Hummingbird's Exceed (Win95/NT X server) product comes with an ftpd
that seems to work well, however efs can't quite grok the output
lines.  Seems that the -l listing gives lines that look like:

-rwx------ 1  staff      47797 Jun 10 13:49 BOOTLOG.TXT
-rwx------ 1  staff      92870 Jul 11  1995 COMMAND.COM

I get the following error message:

Line has too few fields: -rwx------ 1  staff      47797 Jun 10 13:49 BOOTLOG.TXT

This comes from prim/sort.el because efs is telling sort that there
are 9 fields, when clearly there are only 8.

It seems like it should be possible to teach efs/dired to understand
these lines, but I'm not quite One with efs-pc.el.  Does anybody have
a patch?  If not, I'll work one up, but it'll be a week or so...

Thanks.

-Barry
