Good morning everyone,

I am writing to let you know that something major has changed with Dreamweaver V21.3 from V21.2 in regards to connectivity. Before the update I was able to connect to my webhost using Dreamweaver using SFTP but since the update I no longer can. Something has changed behind the scenes and it no longer will connect. I can use it on other sites but not with Pantheon.

I don't know if there is a workaround but I had to roll back to version 21.2 and all is now fine.

Please update this to work the same!

Thank you! This did the trick for me.

I am seeing the same issue. I have several EC2 servers on AWS that I am no longer able to connect to.

Putty and FileZilla both work fine with the credentials and key files that I've always used.

I hope that this gets fixed!

At a guess are the passwords ones, especially in terms of AWS with varios character sumbols etc in them?

No, there is no password.
Just a username and a key file.
And everything worked until the last update of Dreamweaver a few days ago.

I have no trouble connecting to various web hosting servers.

Who is your web host?
What S/FTP connection method are you using?
Is Authorization by username & password or private key file?

If you're using a private key file, use a PEM file.
