I have logged an issue with WinSCP Support to try to resolve an issue where WinSCP does not copy files correctly when performing a 'Duplicate' action on a RT-AC56U running Asuswrt-Merlin 384.5.
See https://winscp.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=84940#84940
It looks like the issue is that the Busybox 'cp' command is not compatible with the commandline used by WinSCP.
I have been able to solve it by installing cp from the 'coreutils. (opkg install coreutils-cp).
This installs a 'cp' that is compatible with the commandline used by WinSCP.
This is a 'heads Up' in case someone else has the same problem or has not noticed the problem.
The issue is still being looked at BUT I doubt WinSCP will change just to handle a problem on a router when there is a workaround to solve it and WinSCP works everywhere else.
Likewise, I do not expect the Busybox 'cp' will be changed just because WinSCP has a problem.
