1. I have tried the sftp command in the below format
Code:
sftp username@<ipaddress>
2. It is just showing
Code:
Connecting to <ipaddress>....
for a long time and is not returning any ouput or error
3. I am trying to run the sftp command from unix system with solaris version SunOS 5.10
The windows version from which I need to fetch the required files is Microsoft windows server 2008(32-bit)
4. I want to write the code in SHELL (shell script)
5. Basically what I am trying to do is to get the files from the windows server to the unix server through sftp ,,which is not working in this case. Just want to know why it is not connecting . Is it the fact that I need some permissions need to be setup to open the ports for SFTP? and also any other process I need to do for sftp to happen
and also if sftp is not possible for this case ,,, is there any other method to get this
Thanks

sftp-server
SFTP-SERVER(8) BSD System Manager's Manual SFTP-SERVER(8)NAME
sftp-server -- SFTP server subsystem
SYNOPSIS
sftp-server [-ehR] [-f log_facility] [-l log_level] [-u umask]
DESCRIPTION
sftp-server is a program that speaks the server side of SFTP protocol to stdout and expects client requests from stdin. sftp-server is not
intended to be called directly, but from sshd(8) using the Subsystem option.
Command-line flags to sftp-server should be specified in the Subsystem declaration. See sshd_config(5) for more information.
Valid options are:
-e Causes sftp-server to print logging information to stderr instead of syslog for debugging.
-f log_facility
Specifies the facility code that is used when logging messages from sftp-server. The possible values are: DAEMON, USER, AUTH,
LOCAL0, LOCAL1, LOCAL2, LOCAL3, LOCAL4, LOCAL5, LOCAL6, LOCAL7. The default is AUTH.
-h Displays sftp-server usage information.
-l log_level
Specifies which messages will be logged by sftp-server. The possible values are: QUIET, FATAL, ERROR, INFO, VERBOSE, DEBUG, DEBUG1,
DEBUG2, and DEBUG3. INFO and VERBOSE log transactions that sftp-server performs on behalf of the client. DEBUG and DEBUG1 are
equivalent. DEBUG2 and DEBUG3 each specify higher levels of debugging output. The default is ERROR.
-R Places this instance of sftp-server into a read-only mode. Attempts to open files for writing, as well as other operations that
change the state of the filesystem, will be denied.
-u umask
Sets an explicit umask(2) to be applied to newly-created files and directories, instead of the user's default mask.
For logging to work, sftp-server must be able to access /dev/log. Use of sftp-server in a chroot configuration therefore requires that
syslogd(8) establish a logging socket inside the chroot directory.
