Client gets 'Socket closed. Cannot receive data.' error on connection

I am using the SecureBridge6 evaluation components. I have created both Server and Client using the steps in the step-by-step tutorials. When the client tries to connect to the remote Server it fails with the 'Socket closed. Cannot receive data.' message. I can ping the server IP Address and using Test-NetConnection to check the server port from the client machine returns True so the socket is definitely open and on the server machine it is shown as listening on that port. Can anyone help with this urgently as I have to decide if SecureBridge6 has the best components for replacing FTP in an application?

It seems that you connect to non FTP server. Please check, that you set correct port and host.
Can you connect to this FTP server using any another third-party FTP client?

I couldn't connect using PuTTY or OpenSSH either which led me to notice that the Address was missing in NetStat results where it showed that the port was listening. I have found the cause of the problem. I hadn't set the ListenAddress in TScSSHServer options. Thanks for your help.
