The problem appears to be that you're not getting the trailing slashes
(see :help netrw-dirlist). The trailing slash indicates to netrw that a
directory listing rather than a file transfer is wanted. Remote
directory listings should have slashes for directories; if you're having
problems in not having that trailing slash, then there's either an odd
ftp client or a server. To track down such a problem -- see :help
netrw-debug. Is it a M$ server?

Try :set ch=2 or :set ch=3 and see if that helps. The "No lines in
buffer" message is issued by vim before netrw gets invoked, so netrw
can't do anything about them.
