To add to the puzzle:

From my Linux netbook, I entered this:
sftp 000000000000\@ssh@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

And, I received 000000000000@ssh@xxxxxxxxxxxxx's password:

So, it appears to be related to Putty.

hi John,

You say that the userid is 123450000000@ssh, and then you say you only
want it to request 123450000000's password. Then you say Putty requests
'ssh' password.

I don't understand.  Is 'ssh' part of the userid?  Or isn't it?  If it's
not, then what is it, and why are you providing it in the userid field?

sftp typically tries to use @ to separate the userid from the hostname.
 So you'd have something like this:

   sftp john@xxxxxxxxxxx

And that means it'd connect to example.com and sign in with userid john.

I am trying to connect to a company using sftp.  They assigned me a
twelve digit user id, which is followed by @ssh.  When I try to log
in, using PuTTY, I get a request for ssh's password.

If user id is 123450000000@ssh and site is ftp.xyz.com, how can I get
the remote system to request 123450000000's password?  I have tried
both ' and ".  Just tried \ in front of the nasty @.  Locked out,
again.
