Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers SFTP Issue - Connection closed Post 302548905 by Hangman2 on Friday 19th of August 2011 04:41:56 PM

It is not asking for any password.

Usually when I say SFTP USER@SERVER then I go into the SFTP prompt and from there I can get/put any file.

So SFTP prompt is not coming. Yes I also saw the bytes received and sent and then connection was closed.

I am trying to set up SFTP from SERVER_A to SERVER_B. Users on these servers are different.

So I have generated the pub/private keys for USER_A on SERVER_A. I then SFTP'ed the PUB file for USER_A on SERVER_B using password and copied this public file to authorized_keys file.

USER_B is the FTP Userid only.


========================
Please not that I have my userid on both the servers say USER_PERSONAL and I am able to set up SFTP without asking for password going from SERVER_A to SERVER_B.
========================
