dired doesn't seem to be able to list a DOS directory.
The command fails with only an error meessage in the minibuffer.
Here are the two relevant lines from the *Message Log* buffer.

Reading directory /tommyk@222.170.160.7:/C:/users/tommyk/...
Line has too few fields: drwx------  1            staff                           0 Sep  9  1997 .
