Could you give us some more information? Sample code and the actual error messages returned can help significantly figure out what is going on.

Hi, by reference to Release 1.13.4, similar to what was found in the server.go file, at the moment we solved the issue by applying the following solution in the packet.go file:

`
$ diff -urN packet.go packet.go.new

func (p *sshFxpExtendedPacketPosixRename) respond(s *Server) responsePacket {

•   err := os.Rename(p.Oldpath, p.Newpath)
  

•   err := os.Rename(toLocalPath(p.Oldpath), toLocalPath(p.Newpath))
    return statusFromError(p.ID, err)
  

}

Ack! This appears to be an actual bug. Looks like the same issue exists with sshFxpExtendedPacketHardlink as well!
