		+	As the SCP protocol implements file transfers only, WinSCP must use other means to implement the additional functionality (like directory listing). WinSCP uses Unix-like shell commands to do that. This in turn means that when using SCP protocol, it can connect to servers that run Unix-like or its emulation only ((e.g. Cygwin on Windows. See [[faq_openssh_win\|FAQ]] to learn how to use WinSCP with Windows server running OpenSSH on Cygwin.)).

If only ''scp2'' is allowed on your server, check the //[[ui_login_scp#other_options\|Use scp2 with scp1 compatibility]]// option on the [[ui_login_scp\|SCP/Shell tab]] in the Login dialog.
