SFTP2

SFTP2.EXE is a Windows port of the UNIX Secure File Transfer 2 tool (sftp2).

SFTP2 is an FTP-like client that can be used for file transfer over the network. SFTP2 uses ssh2 in data connections, so the file transport is secure.

In order to connect using SFTP2, you need to make sure that sshd2 is running on the remote host computer you are connecting to.

SYNOPSIS

  sftp2 [-D debug_level_spec] [-B batchfile] [-S path] [-h]
  [-V] [-P port] [-b buffer_size] [-N max_requests]
  [-c cipher] [-m mac] [user@]host[#port]


OPTIONS

  -D debug_level_spec
         Debug mode. Makes SFTP2 to send verbose debug output. 
         The debugging level is either a number (0-99), 
         or a comma-separated list of assignments
         ModulePattern=debug_level. 

  -B batchfile
         Batch mode. Reads commands from a file instead of
         standard input. Since this mode is intended for
         scripts, SFTP2 will not try to interact with the user, 
         which means that only passwordless authentication methods 
         will work. In batch mode, a failure to change the current 
         working directory will cause SFTP2 to abort. 
         Other errors are ignored.

  -S path
         Specifies the path to the ssh2 binary.

  -h     Prints the command syntax and exits.

  -V     Prints version information and exits.

  -P port
         Specifies the port to be used. 

  -b buffer_size
         Specifies the size of the buffer. 

  -N max_requests
         Specifies the maximum number of allowed requests. 

  -c cipher
         Specifies the cipher to be used. 

  -m mac
         Specifies the MAC algorithm to be used. 

   user  Specify the username to use when connecting.
         (Optional)

   host  Specify the host to connect to.

   port  Specify the port on the host to connect to.
         (Optional)
