| + | |||
| + | * [[message_unexpected_close|Server unexpectedly closed network connection]]; | ||
| + | * [[message_connection_refused|Network error: Connection refused]]; | ||

| + | WinSCP uses [[sftp|SFTP protocol by default]], contrary to most other file transfer clients, which use [[ftp|FTP protocol]]. | ||
| + | |||
| + | For this reason, when you try to connect using the default SFTP protocol to a server that does not have SSH/SFTP service (does not have port 22 open), but it has FTP service (port 21 open), it suggests you that you might have actually wanted to use FTP. | ||
| + | |||
| + | You need to select FTP protocol explicitly on [[ui_login|Login dialog]]. | ||
