>From the Debian people I got a hint: After adding utf8_filesystem=YES to the vsftpd.conf I got the UTF8 in response to the FEAT command! So, problem solved!
I consider it to be a kind of 'undocumented feature' since the setting is missing in the man-page. Also I assume the default of this setting can be defined at compile time by the package maintainer. In Fedora 23 utf8_filesystem=YES seems to be the default. Howsoever, IMHO the core of the problem is the non up-to-date man page. Thanks to all for their assistance. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to vsftpd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1514431 Title: vsftpd does not support non-ASCII (UTF8) characters To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vsftpd/+bug/1514431/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
