I don't know what I am doing wrong. I enter the exact same logon information that works everywhere else (FileZilla, FTP-WinSCP) - but after a few seconds I get this error message

Cannot find the following folders:
sftp://XXXXXXX.server-home.org/
You can ignore this error to consider each folder as empty.
The folders then will be created automatically during synchronization.
Failed to connect to SFTP server "XXXXXXX.server-home.org"
Error Code LIBSSH2_ERROR_AUTHENTICATION_FAILED: Authentication failed (username/password) (libssh2_userauth_password)

The XXXXX are not shown, I used them to hide the real name

Currently FTP is not supported, only SFTP.

I installed FFS 7.9 on a Windows 2003 Server, but the globe to select a SFTP Folder is missing. Resizing the screen did not help. On a windows 10 client all worked fine. I take the GUI File from Win10 and opened it in W2k3.

I get the same errormessage, like above. Are there any requirements for SFTP to get it working?

FreeFileSync's SFTP implementation requires Windows Vista or later.
