Total Commander

Hi there, thanks for the beautiful piece of software tc commander is.

However I am unable to use SCP Plugin on my freifunk / gluon nodes due to errors with the busybox based sshd...

Here is the logfile I optained when logging in. Any chance to make it work?

Maybe have a check if "ls" is busybox based and then use option -e -l to have full date and time display?!

Would need some abstraction layer, but many embedded devices would profit from a fix!

Thanks in advance. Please let me know what is possible

The plugin first sends ls command with parameter
time-style=+>>%Y%m%d_%H%M%S
to get full time details. If this returns an error, TC uses simpler ls commands. For unknown reasons, this detection fails on your server.

Could you create a test account for me, so I could try this in a debugger? Please send the account details to support at ghisler dot com. I do NOT need write access, a subdirectory with some sample files and folders inside is fully sufficient.

Alternatively, can you tell me how to setup this server either on a PC with Linux, or a Raspberry PI? Thanks.

Thanks for your reply!

The problem arises on current freifunk / gluon based router firmwares.

I will setup a keypair for you on a local instance I have.

It needs to be accessed by IPv6, too.
