Dear all,
I have Android 13 on my Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra.
When I try to connect to local FTP or SMB server via stock "My Files" app I get an error. I had the same issue on S10, so the problem is not solved over years.
The logfile on FTP server showing that I have entered IP address / port / username / password correctly:

The client connects OK, but does not do any transfers and simply closes the connection 🤕
Settings are: Encryption: Implicit, Transfer mode: Active. I have tried other combinations and all have failed in some way.
Error shown on the client Unknown error: vfs.provider.ftp/connect.error:
SMB fails as well. I have tried both user/password and anonymous / guest alternatives – both with an error. For anonymous connect I suspect it does not follow correctly the protocol (sends an empty user instead of marking it as anonymous 😱

Well, at least if the server replies with NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER, the error message should be "Invalid user or password", not "Can't connect".
When I use user/password, the server logs confirm that the user is authenticated, but somehow the client messes up with shares 😵:

I don't know why it tries to connect to share IPC$ – it has a special meaning and should be handled appropriately.
I didn't try SFTP because if it fails, I'll cry the whole evening 😭
