Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 19212
Cannot follow symbolic links while browsing FTP site with the File/Open dialog

1. Choose File/Open... 2. Type for example "ftp://ftp.sunet.se/" in the File name field. Press enter 3. Directory listing is shown. Symbolic links are shown as 4 bytes long files. 4. Double-clicking the link gives an "Cannot open file" error instead of following the link.
Hi Andreas, can you please have a look into this? Thanks, Matthias
Confirmed using OOo 1.1.0, compiled from source, running on Gentoo Linux.
Retargeted
Currently it's not very probable that this issue will be fixed for OOo2.0.
