I'm seeing "Server Type: UNKNOWN_FORMAT" in my Robo-FTP trace log file. What does this mean?
Robo-FTP automatically detects the type of FTP server that it connects to by looking at the format of a directory listing it receives from the site. Occasionally, it comes across a site that it does not recognize. When this happens you'll see this.
You can still do basic send and receive file operations inspite of this. However, advanced RCVFILE and SENDFILE options such as /ifnewer and /serverdate will not function; likewise wildcard operations will fail. For more information, see http://lion.serengeti.com/kb/show/51.
