Hi, What is the status on sftp ? People here who are not familiar with "command line ftp" would like to use the new spiffy graphical sftp provided with ssh.com new NT client. As we are planning on replacing all our sshd with openssh, we need sftpd as well. Thanks, Emmanuel -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

There is no specification of the protocol used by the commercial ssh sftp and no one has reverse engineered it. I don't know of any replacements with spiffy graphical interfaces, but you may be able to use rsync. Rsync has been ported to NT and uses some clever algorithms to reduce network traffic. -d -- | "Bombay is 250ms from New York in the new world order" - Alan Cox | Damien Miller - http://www.mindrot.org/ | Email: djm at mindrot.org (home) -or- djm at ibs.com.au (work)
Yo TARDIEU! Just do what I do. Use the spiffy graphical FTP of your choice on your NT box. Then just config your ssh connection to tunnel your plain old FTP protocol to the remote host. Voila! And fully standards compliant. On Thu, 20 Jul 2000, TARDIEU Emmanuel wrote:> Hi, > > What is the status on sftp ?
