Before posting, please read how to report bug or request support effectively.
Bug reports without an attached log file are usually useless.
Actually You are right about that the bug is still there but I think it is not so important since AFAIK using SSH v1 is not so secure and almoust everyone has already upgraded to v2. Even we have v1 only on development box that is in our local network. So I guess there woun't be many cases when ppl face this bug.
But as WinSCP does not crash for me even with SCP I have still no chance to solve it.
It means that you have removed SCP support in winscp 3.x or change something so it crashes. Maybe it is useful to check if SSH 2 is checked together with SFTP protocol or if SFTP is checked with ssh v1 make a warning. So you can avoid in future such lamers as me that continues to use misconfigured clients and abuses the authors about problems. :D
I was talking about the crash problem.
I insist on this unless you prove it to be false. All you do instead is accusing me for neglecting the problem. Show me a solution instead!
The only thing you need is at least two user groups on that box. Group A and group B. Let say you are in a group A and want to overwrite files in a group B where you do not have rights. Or you are in both groups, but user from group B has not set the permissions for that file to let the group users to overwrite it. That's it. There are no other requirements. This bug does not depend on linux/unix but on handling groups by winscp.
In the post you refer to I have asked for test account to check for the crash problem. Noone has offered me a help. I can hardly do anything with it.
Maybe in new 3.6 version this bug can be fixed, too?
https://winscp.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=2461
I like new features that all 3.x version has but can not work with it since starting from 3.x version was invented this permission bug.
actually..no need..it works fine. I forgot to set it to SCP and not SFTP.
When I have show inaccessable directories unchecked, I see nothing.
s right in the panel? drwxrws---
s right is what confuses the things. I'll look at that.

coreyh and you have home directory /seu/staff/home/coreyh, where subdirectory coreyh is owner by you?
