FTP Issue with Filezilla/WinSCP

Recently updated to firmware 9.6.1.  Since then I've had an odd issue where users internally and externally get the attached image when using WinSCP or Filezilla.  When using CoreFTP or Windows there is no issue.  If I authenticate as the ReadyNAS admin with FZ the directories list properly.  Below the black separator is CoreFTP working as intended.

      Hi tnorton00

       

      This issue has been investigated and points out to FTP Clients using MSLD command in order to retrieve file/folder list getting the issue when the primary group name of the domain user uses space e.g "Domain Users". In this case, Filezilla and WinSCP use MSLD command. I have no list of FTP Clients using MSLD or LIST though. 

       

      So the issue is actually related to Client FTPs not being able to handle domain user primary group name that has space included. The workaround is to use a different FTP client which uses LIST command to retrieve file/folder information or change the primary group name with no space included. but on another post, it seems that ARM-based models are getting the issue.

       

      Hope this helps!
