Support and Feedback / Re: FTP connection to AirDisk Pro fails

Thanks for the reply.

Actually, the cause of failure seems to be the mandatory "CWD /" command that MC sends. I don't have permission to access /. This is the case with many many FTP servers regardless of what FTP server software they use. (It is a deliberate security measure.) Perhaps if you consider removing this mandatory troublesome command? Say, go directly for PWD and then LIST instead.

A clarification: AirDisk Pro is an iPhone software, not Mac. And currently, it is free. (I am just saying this because iPhone is more popular than Mac...)

Support and Feedback / FTP connection to AirDisk Pro fails

« on: May 18, 2016, 09:04:46 »

Hi.

I am having problem with using FTP in MultiCommander. I have an iOS FTP server called AirDisk Pro. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, File Explorer and FireFTP successfully connect to it. But when I attempt to connect with MultiCommander, the connection fails. Here is the log:

Code: [Select]

Here is a FireFTP log of a successful connection:
