Folders names with an asterisk don't work

[xeon]

Hello,

Folders that have an asterisk in the name don't seem to show up properly.

Reproduce:

1.) Create a folder with the name "test *", you'll see that it was created and shows up properly.
2.) Refresh the directory listing and you'll notice that "test *" now shows up as "test ", the asterisk was stripped off the folder name.

The raw log output still shows the correct folder name with the asterisk.

This is because the output of the LIST command is not covered by the FTP specifications. A trailing asterisk commonly denotes some special meaning and needs to be stripped.

To solve this, switch to a more modern server that supports the well-defined MLSD command.
