Forbidden filename

I have been using the Duck for almost a year (made a donation too) and there is one site that I always get a "Forbidden filename" message and it will not allow me to upload.

This does not happen with other FTP clients and I am hoping you can help. I have discussed this with the company I am trying to connect to and they can replicate the error with Cyber Duck but other FTP aps work fine.
The sight in question is Airborne Media – ftp.airbornemedia.com.
I can log in fine but just not upload
What are we doing wrong?

Thanks!
Cliff

all other clients work fine? what filetype do you want to upload? maybe your transfer mode is incorrect.

Thanks for the reply,
Trying to upload basicly anyting. PDF, and .zip were the primary ones I needed as they are magazine ads of about 10 megs.

Try it and and let me know if it works for you, there is no password or login needed. I was able to upload fine using Fetch.

I maintain 8-9 different sites and have never had any issues before.
Thanks
Cliff
