SFTP / SCP Support

One of our file repositories is only accessible via SFTP (using a custom port number) - support for this in FinalBuilder would be great! Basically with the same set of operations that the FTP actions have.

Thanks for the suggestion.

My hosting provider also only accepts sftp. Is this feature request in the works ?
Thank you

We are still hoping for this feature as well - especially when 5.x was announced. I may just write my own app to perform the operation (I think Indy supports SFTP) but it would be nice if it were directly supported.

Yes, this feature is still on our todo list. Unfortunately the Indy support (library used for the Internet actions) is not very good when it comes to sftp, ssl, etc.

Any ETA ? I’m evaluating your product (which is very nice btw) to build my various versions of Smart PropertyGrid.Net and to publish them on my web site that unfortunately only accepts sftp.

Sorry, no ETA yet. It was one of those features we really wanted to get into 5.0 but couldn’t quite squeeze it in!

If you want a rough estimate, then I’d say Q1 2007. But, probably would be better for you to use a command line sftp client and call that from FinalBuilder with an Execute Program action in the meantime.

The one I’d recommend you trying is PSFTP (the PuTTY one).

Thank you Tate, will try that.
