Re: Get a file from a direct ftp-link without reading directory / reading attributes impossible ?

WinSCP does not support this. It needs to be able to at least find out, if the link points to a file or a directory.

Get a file from a direct ftp-link without reading directory / reading attributes impossible ?

I would like to download / get a file via a direct FTP-Link including username and password.
The FTP-Server's directory browsing and attribute reading is NOT ALLOWED, but WinSCP hangs on "Reading remote directory" and error-dialog: Could not retrieve directory listing.

But for getting the file, neither reading the attributes nor reading the directory content should be necessary ...
