In the default configuration, not much. However, keyboard-interactive can
be set up to use PAM (though not on IBM i) and you can set all sorts of
fancy authentication methods: Kerberos, 2FA, etc... In the default
configuration, they both do plain password auth.
You can always specify which authentication methods you want to use from
the client with the -oPreferredAuthentications=keyboard-interactive
argument to sftp.
One thing I've run in to in the past is differences in capitalization and
formatting of the prompts across different servers and operating systems.
Is it a matter of your script expecting
"password: "
and getting instead
"Password: "
