If you're going from Unix to Windows then you will need a Windows version of an ftp server running on the Windows box since Windows does not run this program natively (Windows only comes with the ftp client). Secondly, to be ssh driven it will need to have an sftp server installed to do this on the Windows server.

A different, and perhaps easier option, would be to install the Samba client, called smbclient, to transfer your files. You would need an account created in your Windows Domain, authenticate this account in the Domain and then use this account with your smbclient transfer. It will still require password authentication but this can be supplied via the command line.

NAME

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

DESCRIPTION

       sftp-server implements the server side of the SSH File Transfer Protocol as defined in the IETF draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer.

       sftp-server is a subsystem for sshd(1M) and must not be run directly. There are no options or config settings.

       To enable the sftp-server subsystem for sshd add the following to /etc/ssh/sshd_config:

       Subsystem   sftp     /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

       See sshd_config(4) for a description of the format and contents of that file.

       There is no relationship between the protocol used by sftp-server and the FTP protocol (RFC 959) provided by in.ftpd.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0	Successful completion.

       >0	An error occurred.
