Ignores FTP PWD and cannot change directory

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When I connect to my FTP server (vsftpd on lubuntu), I see a listing of the 
root directory instead of the home directory. I can't change to any other 
directory (pressing A just reloads the root directory). Of course I can't save 
the file here (no permission to write to root directory).
When connecting from another FTP client it honours the instruction to change to 
/home/rena and I can write there.
SGM seems to ignore this instruction, and just sends a "cd /", then it can't 
change to any other directory, so it can't save anything.
