sCP or RFC (General questions)

by Jeff, Friday, May 06, 2005, 16:56 (7140 days ago)

We are evaluationg the wodFTPDLX product and we have the requirement that files are transferred over sFTP using sCP. Does this product use sCP or RFC?

Jeff,

sorry I'm confused, but I don't understand your question. Can you please rephrase it?

wodFtpDLX does support SFTP protocol over secured SSH connection.

SCP is a command, not a protocol. Well, it is, but not much of a protocol (very similar to insecure RCP, dump all data and let it go...). SFTP is newer and better protocol.

Can you explain what are you trying to do, and where are you connecting? Can you try wodFtpDLX by setting it's Protocol property to 'SFTP' and trying to connect and transfer files? I'm 99.9 sure it would work.

Regards.

I was curious about this as well. I'm currently attempting to use FtpDLX to connect to a server - but it times out when negotiating the connection (after 21 seconds, consistently). The host owner has suggested using SCP and in client performance tests that appears to perform much better than using the SFTP protocol.

I assume I should read this post to mean that SCP is not supported?

Try switching Protocol to SFTP and use port 22 - perhaps you'll have more luck?
