Re: looking for SFTP utility

No, Linoma was the only vendor we found that could do SSH/SFTP using both 
password and key exchange. 

Trailblazer has a product that does SSH/SFTP using key exchange, and the 
OPENSSH included in I5 OS at no charge (in the PASE environment) also does 
SSH/SFTP, but neither of these options included the ability to do SFTP 
using both a password and key exchange.

So...Linoma is the only 3rd party that has SSH built into their software? 
What about Trailblazer and any others?

Our trading partner also required that the SFTP do userID/password and

key

exchange, which was the limitation most of the products could not do.

Talk to your trading partner about this issue. user/password and key 
exchange are mutually exclusive and cannot be used in the same connection, 

so if you have exchanged keys then you do not need user/password anymore.

Some sftp clients support unattended user/password as well as key 
exchange.
Putty has the psftp.exe utility that can be used in this way.

So does the mindterm java ssh client, that seems like the most logical 
solution for the as400.

In the (freely available) source code, there is an examples package that 
contains a rudimentary sftp client with user/password support.
Since it is java, it can probably be made to run on iseries.
