Do you have any links to SFTP sources? Google search results were confusing and ambiguous.

SFTP is not FTP at all. It is a secure, FTP-like communication protocol. (SFTP here, is a function provided by the ssh protocols.) I'm not sure anyone has really stated that in this thread, so I thought I'd mention it. Others have discussed additional details that I don't need to repeat. -- Walt Farrell, CISSP IBM STSM, z/OS Security Design ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html NOTICE: This electronic mail message and any files transmitted with it are intended exclusively for the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
