    I know this has been covered before and I used to have it working - but I'm not sure since which upgrade it stopped working. But I can no longer see files starting with a "dot" - ie: .htaccess in FTP..

    Have tried the default list option -la and stll no good..

    Here is my proftpd.conf in case anyone can help..

    Include /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf

    I thought it might be the "Denyfilter" option but I commented that out and still no good..

    LOL - after trying for ages and so posting here - finally worked it out;

    I wrapped my listoptions in a <GLOBAL> tag like the following and it works now..

    <GLOBAL>
    ListOptions "-la"
    </GLOBAL>

    Thanks! This was bothering me to... I hope that Falko or Till could couple this patch to ISPConfig or tutorials... ;)
