hello,

i'm using flasfxp to connect to various debian-servers using sftp over ssh. works like a charm so far.
today i tried to send chown as a raw command to the server to change ownership of a file.
only return i got in log window: [R] chown 1000 /var/www/filename.php

i googled und stumbled upon the SITE command and tried it. result:
[R] SITE chown 1000 /var/www/filename.php

i've also tried: SITE "chown 1000 /var/www/filename.php" which did not work either.

i then connected with my command line sftp-client and sent chown 1000 /var/www/filename.php which worked without any problem.

i might be blind, but i have not found any switch in any options pane, and did not succeed in sending the chown command with flashfxp. is there a special trick? or is it just not possible?

if it's not possible with the current version i would like to file a feature request. would that be ok?
