What WebRequestMethods.Ftp.ListDirectoryDetails returns?

[newscorrespondent]

When I as for a list of the details for a directory what comes back?

Columns 000-009 appear to be attributes.
from Windows documentation
h Hidden file
s System file
e Encrypted
r Read-only
a File ready for archiving
c Compressed
p Reparse point

Columns 011-013 are a number but what does this number mean?

Columns 015-033 and 035-053 are alhpa columns with what meaning?

Columns 055-062 look like the file length but what is the number when this
is a directory?

Columns 064-075 document that FTP did not have a Y2K problem.

Columns 077-nnn are the file name but how long can it be.

Thanks

Tom

I do not think there are any limit since the format is platform
specific.

PS: Note that it is only Unix and Unix compatible FTP servers
that use this format.
