SFTP protocol
Summary
SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) is a secure file transfer protocol that runs over the SSH (Secure Shell) protocol. It usually runs over TCP port 22.
SFTP versions 3, 4 and 5
The server supports SFTP v3 (the most commonly supported version of SFTP) and a subset of SFTP v4 and SFTP v5 (which add some useful features):
- Separate last access time and last modified time file attributes
- Millisecond precision for time values
- Mandatory UTF-8 charset
- Newline extension (automated OS type detection)
Transfer compression
Buru server supports SSH protocol ZLIB compression to speed up data transfers. This is particularly useful when transferring highly compressible data such as text files or sparse files. However, it can slow down the transfer speed slightly for already-compressed, multimedia or less compressible files.
SSH authentication modes
The server supports the following SSH authentication methods:
- Local password authentication
- Windows authentication PROedition
- Public/private key authentication
