HardFeed is having trouble parsing the directory listing. What kind of server are you connecting to? Why did you use -l "ls -ls"? If it's a microsoft box, follow the suggestions in the script's comments. If it's something other than a unix server, it may not work without revisions. It works unix to unix. And I made an effort for some microsoft support, testing it on an NT box. Other than that, you're pretty much on your own. Run ftp manually, and post the directory listing that you're trying to parse. There may be something I can do, but no promises.

ftp

ftp(4)								   File Formats 							    ftp(4)

NAME

       ftp - FTP client configuration file

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/default/ftp

DESCRIPTION

       Use  the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment  lines and
       are ignored.

   Behavior Directives
       The ftp file supports the following behavior directives:

       FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no    The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send
				     LIST  instead.  In  order	to  make  the  Solaris	ftp  client  send  LIST when the ls command is issued, set
				     FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes by default.

       If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that	is
       specified in /etc/default/ftp.
