Thank you all for your suggestions. None of them worked. As to the OS question, I do not know the answer.
We found a way to make this work. Just in case anyone would like to know, now or in the future, I will detail what we did. We have tested this for Unix. I don't know how this will effect other systems.
In the .ssh folder on your server, create a file called config.
In that file, type the following:
Host <trading partner name i.e. bookstore>
HostName <actual hostname used for connection>
User <actual user name used for connection>
Port 22
Then, when you login from the command line, type sftp bookstore.
Press enter. The results will be a connection where it will tell ask you for the user@hostname's password.
