Unexpected null reply received

Question

Hello

I have used edtFTPj for a few months now and it was doing a great job until I ran into this exception with one particular customer. I get this exception when trying to login using myFtpClient.login(username, password).

java.io.IOException: Unexpected null reply received
at com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.FTPControlSocket.readReply(FTPControlSocket.java:585)
at com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.FTPControlSocket.sendCommand(FTPControlSocket.java:551)
.......

I tested this with a command line ftp client which worked successfully so I know it's not an issue with the customer's Firewall. I develop on Linux and used version 1.4.7.

edtFTPnet had a similar problem which was just patched today. (http://www.enterprisedt.com/forums/view ... y+received)

Is this a known issue with edtFTPj and if so any estimates as to when you can have a patch out?

Will appreciate any help.
Thanks
MK
