Hi.

Thank you for the information. Synology released an update DSM 5.1-5021, and after that it was possible to use winSCP again. Perhaps they changed the bash settings?

Well, I know it's an escape sequence. But do you know why it's there? In general, WinSCP won't work well over a session that uses this.
See https://winscp.net/eng/docs/requirements#remote_environment

If i make a guess i think it is like this:

7 = play bell (an ASCII bell character (07))
[ [ begin a sequence of non-printing characters,
which could be used to embed a terminal con­
trol sequence into the prompt
r = carriage return
999;999 = not sure
H = the hostname
6 = ack?
n = newline

https://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prompt-HOWTO/bash-prompt-escape-sequences.html
https://www.asciitable.com/

I think this is the escape charcaters that is given for the prompt.

Do you know what the "7" means?

Hi.

I have been using WinSCP succesfully to connect to my synology NAS using SCP for a long time. After the latest Synology upgrade to DSM 5.1-5004 WinSCP fails to complete the initialization.

Authentication works fine, but the next step of checks fails, not sure which...
Synology uses their own shell, ash.

I am able to login with Putty and use ls -la without any problems.
