Re: FTP with MLSD breaks for symlinks

Please attach a full log file showing the problem (using the latest version of WinSCP).
Indicate what file in the log should be rendered as symlink.

To generate log file, enable logging, log in to your server and do the operation and only the operation that causes the error. Submit the log with your post as an attachment. Note that passwords and passphrases not stored in the log. You may want to remove other data you consider sensitive though, such as host names, IP addresses, account names or file names (unless they are relevant to the problem). If you do not want to post the log publicly, you may email it to me. You will find my address (if you log in) in my forum profile. Please include link back to this topic in your email. Also note in this topic that you have emailed the log.

FTP with MLSD breaks for symlinks

Hi!

When I use MLSD on a directory over FTP, the contained symlinks are not rendered as symlinks. Additionally, directories lack the permission bits.

I'm using 5.5.1 build 3970 on win7 x64, connecting to a proftpd on a debian.
