RE: SFTP between Linux and Windows

You can find information about the compatibility of OpenSSH and SSH for
Windows here:
https://support.ssh.com/rqcustomer/servlet/login. 

Click on the "Knowledge Base" link, (you don't need to login for access
to this stuff).

Enter "OpenSSH client" in the "text" field and click "Search".

This should bring you up a list of 3 articles:

 (1) OpenSSH scp to SSH Tectia Server does not work

 (2) How to convert OpenSSH keys to the SSH Tectia format

 (3) How to set up public-key authentication when OpenSSH client is
used.

 The second one is only relevant to SSH Tectia 4.2 and later so that one
doesn't you any good, but the 3rd article includes the client command
for converting the public keys to a format that is compatible.

Subject: SFTP between Linux and Windows

I am trying to get an unattended SFTP session between a windows box and
a
Linux box.  The windows machine is running SSH V3.2.0 build 267 and the
Linux machine is running openssh-3.1p1-14.  I have created the public
keys
but I am still getting prompted for password.  I have accomplished this
in
the past going from Linux - Linux, but this is the first time I have
tried
it from Windows - Linux. Any insights appreciated.

Regards, Marshall
