By default, pure-ftp server is configured to limit the files display to maximum 2,000 files. The list will be truncated if your files contain more than the limit.
To change this setting, you can do this:
1) Log into the server via gain the root access
2) Use your favorite text editor to open /etc/pure-ftp.conf
3) Search for the line:
LimitRecursion 2000 8
4) Change the Display limit (Increase/Decrease)
The first number (default = “2000″) after LimitRecursion is the display limit of files pure-ftp will show at anyone time. Just change it to whatever values you think is necessary for your server.
The second number (default = “8″) is the maximum sub directory depth shown in the FTP. You may change this value for recursion limit if necessary as well.
5) Restart the pure-ftpd service
service pure-ftpd restart
