File Limit per directory

Can you set a limit on the number of files in a directory on a Redhat/cpanel system?

I have a customer who has over 4.5GB and likely 10000 files in a single directory. When trying to ftp into the system, it connects per logging, this disconnects when trying to run the ls -al.

Any thoughts on how to correct this?

Thanks,
Rob
