hi!

i have exactly the same problem as below, which according to the archives  
and bug tracking site has never been answered/addressed, although i see it  
happening with everyone and it renders mc virtually unusable for more than  
a single ftp request.. :(

MC Data
OS: Mac OS X 10.4.7 (Tiger)
mc -V:
The Midnight Commander 4.6.0
Edition: text mode
Virtual File System: tarfs, extfs, ftpfs, mcfs, undelfs
With builtin Editor
With subshell support: as default
Without mouse.

HTH,

Greetings,

Symptoms
When the ftp session times out, mc reports:
ftpfs: failed; nowhere to fallback to

and then it cannot establish an ftp connection to any
server.  Quitting and restaring mc is required.


Recommendation
mc should be able to re-establish an FTP session after
being timed out.


MC Data
OS: Linux (SuSE 7.3)

mc -V:
The Midnight Commander 4.5.54
Edition: text mode
Virtual File System: tarfs, extfs, ftpfs, mcfs, undelfs
With builtin Editor
Using S-lang library with terminfo database
With subshell support: as default
with mouse support on xterm and the Linux console.
Using locale "en_US" (from environment variable LANG)


Regards,

George
