Proxy Server and SFTP routing
Hi Friends,


I am trying to connect to remote server via proxy server and transfer files from my server .

the proxy server is windows.

I wanted to know is that is it possible?

I am using command to connect is

Code:
/usr/local/bin/sftp -o "ProxyCommand nc proxyserver.com 8080"(E-Mail address blocked: See forum rules) 22

Could some one tell me whether above command is valid?

Could someone please share the command to connect to remote server via proxy?



Thanks,
Reddy

Hi Spacebar,

Thanks for your quick reply!!!

I got the below command and ran

Code:
/usr/local/bin/sftp -oIdentityFile=/x0/xxxxx/yyyyy/.ssh/key_name -o "ProxyCommand nc proxy.server.com 8080 %h %p" user@remoteserver.com 22

When I run this command from server xyz via proxy server proxy.server.com to remote server remoteserver.com I am getting message

Connecting to remoteserver.com.... and prompt never comes back and no connection being made to remote server.

DO you think the command I am using is incorrect way?

Thanks,
Reddy

Try it like this, I've also added the "-v" switches so you should get more verbage of what is happening:
Code:
sftp -v -oIdentityFile=/x0/xxxxx/yyyyy/.ssh/key_name -oProxyCommand='/usr/bin/nc -v -xproxy.server.com:1080 %h %p' user@remote_sftp_server.com 22

Hello Experts,
