CentOS-5.6
fuse-2.7.4-8.el5
fuse-curlftpfs-0.9.1-1.el5.rf

I am trying to mount an ftp connection as a local file system using
fuse and curlftpfs.  I can connect to the remote system (an HP3000
running MPEiX 7.5) and the directory seems to mount but I cannot use
it.  What I get is an Input/output error:

$ curlftpfs -v  hahp3k01.harte-lyne.ca tmp/hp3000
* About to connect() to hahp3k01.harte-lyne.ca port 21
*   Trying 192.168.1.102... * connected
* Connected to hahp3k01.harte-lyne.ca (192.168.1.102) port 21

* Connection #0 to host hahp3k01.harte-lyne.ca left intact
$
$ ll tmp/hp3000
ls: reading directory tmp/hp3000: Input/output error
total 0

Is this a problem with fusermount, curlftpfs the ftp server on the
Hp3000 or something else?

Suggestions as to what is wrong and how I can get this to work are
most welcome.
