[RadhakrishnanR]

How i can implement SFTP in VB.

Scenario is I want to take file from SFTP server, then after some process with the file , file will be moved to database..

Our requirement is very clear that how to use SFTP in VB, currently we are using the OS-native FTP functionality, for SFTP there is no OS-native functionality. And we are not using any third party tool.

In VB is it possible to accomplish this job.? If not could u give the reason.

Hi,


I was grappling with this problem of connecting to the sftp server and then downloading some files from it. I had posted some time back asking for help, but i guess none had a good answer.So I thought might as well post the solution that I have found for this.

I recommend downloading winscp.exe.Then from the command prompt you can call a file where in you can write the script.The example script is as follows:

I had installed wnscp in program files. So I went to the installation folder from command prompt and typed the following:
winscp.com /console /script=example.txt

The following is how example.txt is like:
---------------------------------------------------------
open sftp://user:password@ip address:port
cd /<remote directory path>
get filename <localpath>
exit



Thanks,
Debesh
