Directory Listing from symbolic link fails

[kikidonk]

Hi !
First of all nic app! keep it on !

Well I've a problem with a specific server. It is a
SFTP server (i don't know if it has anything to do ..).
When i log in, i am in this directory:

/students/home/zoner/rslinckx/

In this directory, there is a symbolic link (that
represent a folder) pointing to

/students/share/gr1216

The problem is that when i double click on this link,
Filezilla appears to resole the link, but when LISTing
it shows the files in /students/home/zoner/rslinckx/
and not the files in the gr1216/ folder...

It is the same thing if I enter directly
/students/share/gr1216 as adress in the adressbar, then
it shows nothing when LISTing...

Here is the log (this shows the correct listing in the
window):
Connecting to sshifsa.fsa.ucl.ac.be:45001 ...
Status: Connected with sshifsa.fsa.ucl.ac.be:45001,

Then I double click on the gr1216/ symbolic link, but
the same listing is returned...

Response: Remote working directory is now

And this happens everytime i click on that link...

If i enter directly the correct adress in the adressbar
it returns me exactly the same thing...

Any hint ? (if you need to test some things on the
server, contact me by mail, because this is a ssh and i
can't give out the password of course :) )
