Could you, please, provide the whole filename you have used? Is it
something like "/ftp.host:/DISK$CAM:/NINGERSOLL/"?
VMS file names are handled on VMS hosts correctly. ange-ftp, when used
natively, discards itself when it handles local file names like
"/DISK$CAM:/NINGERSOLL/". Since it doesn't know about Tramp, it doesn't
discards that, too; therefore Tramp is invoked when the local file name
is handled.
I guess you could discard it with the usual Emacs mean to throw file
name handlers away for the local file name part: Does it help to open
the directory as "/ftp.host:/:DISK$CAM:/NINGERSOLL/"?
