Issue with winscp

[kolban-google]

A user reported an issue via slack...

I am having issues connecting with winscp with username and password. However it works with the command line? have you found a solution for this?

Log messages appear to be:

In examining #2 it was found that the same surface error occurred as reported in this issue. Digging into #2, a defect was found where the demon program was not responding correctly. A code fix has been made. I'm asking the originator of the issue to test the latest build and ... fingers crossed ... we are working now.
