[BlueOnyx:11247] Re: Slightly OT: Filezilla client not recognizing the site symlinks

[jeffrey Pellin - PX2]

Hi, 

I use Filezilla on my production BO boxes and I cant
reproduce this - I follow the symlinks fine. However I always use sftp
to connect. 

I am currently using 3.5.3. 

If you wanted to set me up a
test account on your box I would be happy to see if I could follow the
links. If I can it's a prob with your Filezilla install, if not it must
be something weird on your box. 

You could try SFTP to see if it makes
a difference. 

Regards 

Jeffrey

(/home/sites/www.site.com [1]) filezilla thinks it's a file and not a
directory. I just get a "not a regular file" error and have to manually
track down the actual website under .sites by directory number.
