Talk:FileZilla FTP Server

I had to revert to the previous edition, as the updated article contained too many factual errors and made unbased assumptions about "most users".

The article says that the FileZilla server supports SFTP: "Strong encryption support using SFTP over SSH and FTP over SSL/TLS"

Either this is an addition to the development version, or it is wrong, probably copied from the client description. As it is now, I don't see anywhere else that says that FileZilla server supports SFTP, and since I am trying to use it, I looked to see if it is actually available, and I can't find where it is enabled if it is available.

I've been struggling with this too. I've managed to generate the certs and establish FTP over SSL or TLS and this works fine, but not SFTP over SSH2. Maybe one of the devs can tell us whether this feature is ready yet?

-- I am curious about the same thing, but as was mentioned before, I believe this was just copied from the client version description.

FTP over SSL/TLS is abbreviated as FTPS, which is something different than SFTP.

FileZilla supports FTPS as mentioned in the article. Nowehre SFTP is mentioned.

-- Yes, the addition of SFTP would be HUGE. Can someone "in the know" let us know if this is aplanned feature? - the alchemist

Unlikely, most popular SFTP servers don't compile well on Windows, it's a terrible operating system. --CodeSquid 01:35, 9 October 2007 (CEST)
