Thank you prikryl!
It worked perfect at the second connection attempt. :D

Yes, for security reason I have some special character in the password.
WinSCP does not accept special characters in passwords?
martin

That does not look like PuTTY event log (you have to right-click its window title and select "Event Log").

For FileZilla, can you set logging "Debug information" level to "Verbose"?

Anyway, don't you have some special character in the password? Like some accented letter.

Dear prikryl, I just try all versions and any fails to connect.
Is there any configuration that can be changed for authentication work?
juanamores

Filezilla and PuTTY logs.

Re: SFTP Authentication failed!

Please attach an event log from PuTTY, as well as a log file from FileZilla (not a message log from GUI).

It would be great if you try to find our what version of WinSCP worked for you.
