New component: Rebex SFTP for .NET - file transfer over SSH

 

A new component has just been released: Rebex SFTP for .NET.

Rebex SFTP provides secure file system access over an SSH channel using the SFTP protocol. SSH is a set of standards and a protocol that allows establishing a secure channel between the client and a server. It uses public-key cryptography to authenticate the server and negotiate symmetric encryption keys and provides confidentiality and data integrity. SFTP is supported by the majority of SSH servers on Unix and Windows.

Features include:

  • All basic file and folder operations.
  • Upload from memory.
  • Resumable transfers.
  • Lot of samples in C# and VB.NET including fully functional WinForm SFTP client and command line SFTP client.
  • Easy-to-follow tutorial for a quick start.
  • Multiple simultaneous operations.
  • Includes Rebex Security component with support for signature/verification, encryption/decryption, etc.
  • Complete C# source code is also available.
  • And more...

With the addition of Rebex SFTP to our portfolio, we now provide components for both major secure file
transfer standards - the other is FTP over TLS/SSL.

SecureFTP vs SFTP vs SSH FTP vs FTPS - What the heck is the difference?  We have a customer that requires us to connect to an SFTP server using SSH and an RSA key.  Yuour SFTP Client says it supports RSA keys, but the only code sample on your site shows username + password.  Not username + key.

SecureFTP vs SFTP vs SSH FTP vs FTPS - you are right, this IS very confusing. Unfortunately, these ambiguous acronyms have been in use by the Internet community since the late 90s and now it's too late to do anything about it. At least we wrote a page that tries to explain the differences between common file transfer protocols - you can find it at http://www.rebex.net/secure-ftp.net/

Regarding the RSA and DSA key support - what we meant by this is that we support both algorithms for the SSH server keys, which the server uses to prove its identity to a client. But we agree this was a bit misleading. Fortunately, this is no longer an issue, as the support for SSH client keys has been added as well in the latest release - check out http://blog.rebex.net/news/archive/2007/01/18/build-2567.aspx for details.

Thanks for your feedback!
