Completely sure. I double checked.

Than I doubt that Filezilla works. Because it is based on PuTTY as well. Are you sure you are using SFTP with Filezilla?
juanmah

Putty fails when login with password: á and do it correctly with password: a
It has the same behavior as WinSCP.

Can you try PuTTY?
juanmah

I've downloaded all disponible versions from 3.8.1 to 4.1.7, and I'm not able to login now with a special character password. But I'm sure before summer it worked. Maybe is a SSH issue?

I'm not aware of such change between 4.0.6. and 4.1.7. Are you able to login now with 4.0.6? Or did it just work then?
juanmah

Protocol: SFTP
Version: 4.0.5 and 4.0.6

Re: special characters in password

What protocol are you using? Which version of WinSCP did work?
juanmah

special characters in password

When I log in to a host with a user whose password has special characters like áéíóú, the access is denied.

If I change the user's password in host to aeiou and I try to log in then it works.

The same special character password worked months before (I don't know what version I used), I suppose this is a new 'feature' in new version.

I also tried to enter with filezilla and the special character password worked.
