I am trying to connect to a FTP Server that is running on a remote IPv6 network. When I enter DNS Name / Port etc. and try to browse folders I get a error "CURLE_COULDNT_CONNECT" after waiting some seconds.

When I user the IPv6 adress and not the DNS name I get an error immediately. If I use Filezilla for connecting to the FTP Server I have no problems and everything is working fine.

Does Freefilesync have problem with IPv6 adresses or do I something wrong?

During DNS resolving there are two IP adresse in the answer for this ftp server, one is IPv4 and one is IPv6. The IPv6 have to be used, IPv4 is not working because it is not rechable from remote (internet provider internal adress).

Can you provide me with a test login for this server? I would expect that this can be fixed.
