ftp configuration

I have a folder that contains about 2500 files but i can only get a list of 2000. I've tried flashfxp, ws_ftp, and using internet explorer. So I figure it must be the configuration of pure-ftpd on my server. Has anyone heard of anything like this before? How would I change the settings on pureftpd if it is the problem?

Never heard of that problem before. Then again, can't say I've ever had that many files in a single directory.

Have you verified the files are actually there?

count(glob("/path/*"));

Sounds like some of the files are hidden.

Try listing the files showing all hidden files too (files starting with a dot ".").

`ls -al'

they're all folders, approximately 2500 folders

but i worked my way around it by downloading some folders, then deleting, then the rest of them showed up

now I have the problem i need to chmod() all the folders in that directory, and usually I just highlight all the folders and right click and choose properties

i tried making a script to do it, but it said I didn't have permission :|
