I’m the author of HPN-SSH and I was asked by a commenter here to weigh in. I’d like to start with a couple of background items. First off, it’s important to keep in mind that SSHv2 is a multiplexed protocol – multiple channels over a single TCP connection. As such, the SSH channels are essentially … Read more
Maybe you can script/control winscp? Update: winscp now has a .NET library available as a nuget package that supports SFTP, SCP, and FTPS
OSXFUSE seems to work. I just downloaded the two OSXFUSE and SSHFS packages from http://osxfuse.github.com (the links are on the right hand side), and ran: sshfs user@host:/dir /mnt/somelocaldirectory EDIT: if you want a GUI, you might want to try sshfs-gui, though I haven’t tried it myself. Personally, I’d use Cyberduck, though it doesn’t technically do … Read more
paramiko.SFTPClient Sample Usage: import paramiko paramiko.util.log_to_file(“paramiko.log”) # Open a transport host,port = “example.com”,22 transport = paramiko.Transport((host,port)) # Auth username,password = “bar”,”foo” transport.connect(None,username,password) # Go! sftp = paramiko.SFTPClient.from_transport(transport) # Download filepath = “/etc/passwd” localpath = “/home/remotepasswd” sftp.get(filepath,localpath) # Upload filepath = “/home/foo.jpg” localpath = “/home/pony.jpg” sftp.put(localpath,filepath) # Close if sftp: sftp.close() if transport: transport.close()
PHP has ssh2 stream wrappers (disabled by default), so you can use sftp connections with any function that supports stream wrappers by using ssh2.sftp:// for protocol, e.g. file_get_contents(‘ssh2.sftp://user:pass@example.com:22/path/to/filename’); or – when also using the ssh2 extension $connection = ssh2_connect(‘shell.example.com’, 22); ssh2_auth_password($connection, ‘username’, ‘password’); $sftp = ssh2_sftp($connection); $stream = fopen(“ssh2.sftp://$sftp/path/to/file”, ‘r’); See http://php.net/manual/en/wrappers.ssh2.php On a side … Read more
The answers here are terrible advice. You should never turn off StrictHostKeyChecking in any real-world system (e.g. it’s probably okay if you’re just playing on your own local home network – but for anything else don’t do it). Instead use: ssh-keygen -R hostname That will force the known_hosts file to be updated to remove the old … Read more
This is probably not a direct answer to what you’re asking, but when I need to transfer files over a SSH session I use WinSCP, which is an excellent file transfer program over SCP or SFTP. Of course this assumes you’re on Windows.
Update Sep 2017 – tl;dr Download a single file from a remote ftp server to your machine: sftp {user}@{host}:{remoteFileName} {localFileName} Upload a single file from your machine to a remote ftp server: sftp {user}@{host}:{remote_dir} <<< $’put {local_file_path}’ Original answer: Ok, so I feel a little dumb. But I figured it out. I almost had it … Read more
I’ve searched around and found that this fork of SharpSSH and SSH.NET are the most up to date and best maintained libraries for SFTP (not to be confused with FTPS) communication in .NET. SSH.NET is a clean .NET 4.0 implementation of the SFTP protocol, and I’ve used it in a couple of solutions with flying … Read more
There are three options. You can use a native managed SFTP service recently added by Amazon (which is easier to set up). Or you can mount the bucket to a file system on a Linux server and access the files using the SFTP as any other files on the server (which gives you greater control). … Read more
