Doh! Thanks for the lead but no, SSL support but no SFTP

- from Microsoft -

"There are a few features that we don't support, though. We don't offer
support for SFTP (FTP over SSH). You can't delegate FTP configuration,
like you can with many other IIS 7.0 features. And there is no support
for Windows Server(tm) 2003 or earlier operating systems."

We bought the Globalscape SFTP product.   I would not recommend it for a
large environment.  For something small (<100) users, it is probably
fine.  I've heard some discussion IIS7 was going to include it, but
haven't investigated.

All,

 

We are looking for a SFTP product for our Windows Server 2K3 environment
and I would appreciate any product recommendations or warnings that the
group could share.
