So, symlinks seem to be broken from 3.3.1 onwards. I've attached some screenshots that show the problem.

Basically, in 3.3, you are able to follow symlinks (they show up as directories, if that's what they are). In versions > 3.3, they show up as files (even though they link to directories) and Cyberduck tries to download them as files.

I've tried it on 2 different machines and get the same functionality.

Let me know if you need any other info.

Can you post the transcript from the log drawer of the browser window using 3.4.1.

The problem is that these links are pointing to directories that are not accessible via FTP. This is a bug in the server implementation of STAT.

The workaround is to disable the use of STAT using a hidden preference for Cyberduck.

Please report this bug to the server software vendor.
