Windows account unable to login - Filezilla

Question

I have added a Windows account within CompleteFTP using the domain search function.  However, when I try to use the Windows account to connect, I constantly get "User domain\user failed to authenticate".  I am using Filezilla FTP client to attempt to connect.  I have attempted to connect using FTP, SFTP and FTPS.

 

I created a non-Windows account and I am able to connect with that non-Windows user.

Comments

Can you please check to see what the server log says?  There should be some more information about the failure there.

---

I have and it says the user not found.  However, I can connect using Windows File Explorer ftp:servername.  When prompted for username and password I enter the same Windows credentials that I'm inputing into Filezilla for sftp.

Please post the relevant part of the server log (not too much!) at the Debug level.

Here is a successful attempt using unsecure Windows File Explorer FTP.  I'm showing this to prove that there is a user Windows account amorris

I'll follow up with an unsuccessful using Filezilla
