Connecting to Filezilla server - WinSCP 425s

Hi,
I have a filezilla server across the internet. Due to a router issue I had to set it to forward port 2121 to port 21, and also forward passive ports 50000 to 50100, and in filezilla server I have manually set those passive ports.

Filezilla client can connect fine and list the directory:

When I connect from WinSCP (both my old version and the new Beta 506) it connects fine but it won't list the folder - I get:

Any ideas why filezilla works but WinSCP doesn't?
Some further info is that CoreFTP client connects fine as well on port 2121

thanks for any help
Rob

Re: Connecting to Filezilla server - WinSCP 425s

Can you try it with the latest beta version and post (or email) a complete log file both from WinSCP and Filezilla?

windows firewall rule needed

i was having problem with the error 425: can't open data connection. I fixed the problem by creating firewall rule (i am using win7) and added rule for the passive ports (tcp, because FTP data is tcp oriented).

hope this helps
