No directory listing from VxWorks in Vista

[Dave Hawthorne]

Running Filezilla client 3.2.5, I cannot get a directory listing from certain VxWorks servers in Vista. The servers are embedded in a home controller (AMX NetLinx, to be precise) and are running VxWorks 5.5.1. Here is a copy of the exchange on my Vista machine:

Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Response: 220 VxWorks (VxWorks5.5.1) FTP server ready
Command: USER administrator
Response: 331 Password required
Command: PASS
Response: 230 User logged in
Status: Connected
Status: Retrieving directory listing...
Command: PWD
Response: 257 Current directory is "doc:user"
Error: Failed to retrieve directory listing

Passive or active does not matter, and it is not a timeout; the failure comes immediately. On the same network, the same connection, the same router, and an identical setup, but on a machine running XP, the listing and all other operations are fine. The problem is only with my machine running Vista.

Did you try all the different server types listed on the advanced page in the site manager?

Replying to codesquid:

No, since it worked on an XP machine just fine, I assumed the problem had to be an interaction between Vista and the client.

However, it does in fact seem to work if I explicitly set the server type to VMS. So the bug must be in the auto-detect function under Vista.
