Cannot connect to SFTP

I am trying to connect to the sourceforge sftp server when using FreeCommander.
Everything is fine when using Filezilla.

I am using this help: https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/documentation/SFTP/
I tried with server frs.sourceforge.net, but I get

------------------- Create sftp client -------------------
Use file storage: C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\FreeCommanderXE\Settings\SftpStorage
sourceforge.net -> frs.sourceforge.net [myusername] ==== Connect: datetime ====
Login type: Password
Authentication failed
publickey,keyboard-interactive
Logout done


My password is definitely correct.
Any idea what might be wrong?

Are you using donor version? Which FC version and which OS version are you using?

If you have any login data for testing on this server, I could try check it.

I have sent you the data in a PM.

The server use authentication method not currently implemented in FreeCommander.
I will add the new authentication method in the next release.
