WinSCP definitely cannot work against a server that does not allow CWD command.

Hi

Can someone please help with an issue I am having using WinSCP as an FTPS client. The information below I have hashed out any possibly sensitive data and replaced IP address with 000.000.000.000

I am getting the following error

Error listing directory "#######.".
Could not retrieve directory listing
User Exit denies Userid '#######' from using Command 'CWD'

After clicking OK the client appears to connected but I am unable to copy any files across and getting the following error

Copying files to remote side failed.
User Exit denies Userid '#######' from using Command 'CWD'.

I have put the client into passive mode as I have read this has worked for others but this hasn't made any different for me.

Below is the log I am getting.

If anyone could help it would be much appreciated
Thanks
