We have not experienced that problem, but you should know that the FTP engine in edtFTPD is ProFTPD on the Cygwin platform. You might like to do some searching for ProFTPD/Cygwin users having similar problems.

I'm sorry we can't help you with this problem. edtFTPD, being based on ProFTPD/Cygwin, is awfully difficult to debug and we have decided that it is not worth the effort. We are planning to discontinue it and replace it by a free Java-based FTP/FTPS server. This software should quickly reach a high level of quality due to improved maintainability.

It will probably take some months before a full version is released, but we will be starting beta testing within a few weeks. Anyone interested in participating in beta testing please contact support (support@enter...).

Please note also that you can stay up to date with EDT product releases on our mailing list.
