Filezilla client SSL trust

Hello,

Apologies for the cross-posting, I probably should have asked here first:

When connecting to my FreeBSD 12/pure-ftpd server, the Filezilla client correctly displays the installed Comodo wildcard certificate, but does not trust it.

Talking to Comodo I was told that it isn't just Comodo SSL the Filezilla client does not trust, but the Filezilla client does not trust SSL certs from any CA.

Is this correct?

Correct, FileZilla leaves that decision to the user (TOFU = Trust On First Use model).

There is probably nothing wrong with the certificate, if it is displayed correctly.
