The list parser to use for the FTP server connection. If the field is left blank,

Managed File Transfer

will attempt to use the MLSD parser. If the MLSD parser is not supported by the server, the UNIX parser will be used. If you experience problems listing directories, select a different list parser.

This field is used if the date returned by the FTP server is different than the selected list parser's default. If your location requires a different date format (for example, d MMM yyyy), specify the date format in this field. Not all list parsers support the date format setting. List parsers that do not support the Date Format setting will ignore any User specified values. Refer to the List Parser Date Format table below for the defaults and options supported by each list parser.

Specify the date format to use when parsing the recent last modified date for each file. The recent date format is primarily used on UNIX-based systems and appears on entries less than a year old. If your location requires a different recent date format (for example, d MMM HH:mm), specify that pattern in this field. Not all list parsers support the recent date format setting. List parsers that do not support the recent date format setting will ignore any User specified values. Refer to the List Parser Date Format table below for the defaults and options supported by each list parser.
