FEAT incompatiblity with Microsoft FTP Service

[https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id?id=aitoawmajmq77iwqyiixa0_gk3bxsdcpittbsuq]

Since the latest update I am unable to connect to my Windows FTP server in Cyberduck. It was working fine before the update. When using Filezilla the connection goes through without a hitch.

Here is the extent of the log...

220-Microsoft FTP Service
220 FTP Server
FEAT
220-Microsoft FTP Service
220 FTP Server
FEAT

Then I get the following message in a dialog:

I/O Error: Connection Failed
Read timed out.

What is the transcript when connecting with Filezilla? Looks like a server issue as it stops responding.

Here is the log from Filezilla...

Filezilla seems to work fine.

I have received the same results from from both my work and home computers. Previous versions of Cyberduck logged into the server fine. Immediately after the 3.6.1 upgrade to Cyberduck, FTP stopped working.

The compatiblity issue seems to be that the server does not respond to FEAT before we are logged in. The issue was introduced as we are now displaying a message titled The server supports encrypted connections. Do you want to switch to FTP-SSL? if the response to FEAT contains AUTH TLS.

As a workaround disable this feature entering

defaults write ch.sudo.cyberduck connection.unsecure.switch false

in a Terminal.app window.

It appears in the latest release of 3.8.1 this bug is still around.

I see you marked it 3 months ago as thirdparty but the fact that every other FTP client seems to work just fine, I wouldn't say its a third party fix.

Enabling this hidden feature does the trick but unsure why. The Microsoft FTP server I am unsure of the version number. Not sure if it only happens against older versions of IIS or current but it definitely still happens.

As ticket:5138 says to disable this feature all together you can run this above Terminal command but should this be turned into a checkbox in the preferences?

The server should return 500 or something but not just close the connection.
