Please start a new topic for your problem. There, describe how did you "enabled the possibility to automate this" and include a full log file.

Re: WinSCP Keeps asking for FTP Password when it gets disconnected

Hi I tried that but it still happens. It's seems to happen more on slower connections.

Is there any way post log files which would allow more information to be gathered?

I am using WinSCP version 5.9.3 Build 7136 in ftp mode to copy files from a Windows 2012 R2 Server to a remote NAS Unit.

I am using the Commander Interface with the option "Keep remote Directory up to date". I have saved the options to connect to the remote Unit using a Synology DS414.

When I connect it begins to upload files and I leave it to upload. However when I go back to it perhaps 1 hour later it is sitting asking for a password. I type the password in again and it continues to copy.

I have selected the option to remember the password for this session. It seems to happen if the connection is broken and cannot automatically reconnect with the remembered password.

How can I fix the problem?


Thanks
