SCP server (General questions)

Hi,

Does this component support SCP file transfers?

Thanks!

Mike,

cannot answer this. SCP is not a protocol, it is a command on UNIX systems that establishes SSH connection (which is supported) and then calls little program similar to RSH to transfer files. So, SCP is not a protocol - it is a program. You can implement your own SCP program if you want that would do this.

But this all makes no sense - wodSSHServer does support SFTP protocol for secure file transfers which is waaaaaaay better than SCP, why don't you try it out.

If you need wodSSHServer only for file transfers, I suggest you check out wodFTPServer instead, who is optimized and has much more file-transfer-related features.

Regards.

Thank you for the answer. The reason I need SCP support is due to a legacy application that utilizes it, not SFTP. We're moving said app to SFTP soon, but soon enough for this project. I think that gives me the details I need though.

Thanks!

Actually, SCP file transfers with PSCP work perfectly. I just didn't have my homedir set correctly for the user.

Awesome component. Stress testing a few things now, but this looks great so far.

Mike,

I am not 100 (only 99.9 ) sure, but PSCP from putty uses SFTP protocol if available, and then falls back to SCP command if SFTP is not available.

That would make sense. Considering WinSCP won't work w/ just SCP selected. Either way, my statement stands. Awesome component.
