Hello bigstar,

thanks for your reply !!!!

I just set up an account for you and recognized that a login with FileZilla was either not possible?!? (with my other accounts FileZilla worked, but FlashFXP not). So I did some tests and finally found out what the problem was.

In the past I wrote a script for new users, so that all folders and permissions are set up automatically. It seems that this script was not encoded in UTF-8.

After I changed (via ssh console) with passwd the password direct in console all characters works now in FileZilla and also in FlashFXP !!!!! :-)

Thank you very much!!

Best regards,

Thorsten
