DESCRIPTION

is an interactive file transfer program, similar to ftp(1) which performs all operations over an encrypted ssh(1) transport. It may also use many features of ssh, such as public key authentication and compression. connects and logs into the specified then enters an interactive command mode.
The second usage format will retrieve files automatically if a non-interactive authentication method is used; otherwise it will do so after successful interactive authentication.
The third usage format allows to start in a remote directory.
The final usage format allows for automated sessions using the option. In such cases, it is necessary to configure non-interactive authentication to obviate the need to enter a password at connection time (see sshd(8) and ssh-keygen(1) for details). The options are as follows:
  • 1 Specify the use of protocol version 1.
  • buffer_size Specify the size of the buffer that uses when transferring files. Larger buffers require fewer round trips at the cost of higher memory consumption. The default is 32768 bytes.
  • batchfile Batch mode reads a series of commands from an input instead of Since it lacks user interaction it should be used in conjunction with non-interactive authentication. A of may be used to indicate standard input. will abort if any of the following commands fail: c get , put , rename , ln , c rm , mkdir , chdir , ls , c lchdir , chmod , chown , chgrp , lpwd and c lmkdir . Termination on error can be suppressed on a command by command basis by prefixing the command with a character (for example, c -rm /tmp/blah* ) .
  • C Enables compression (via ssh's flag).
  • ssh_config Specifies an alternative per-user configuration file for ssh(1) This option is directly passed to ssh(1)
  • ssh_option Can be used to pass options to in the format used in ssh_config(5) This is useful for specifying options for which there is no separate command-line flag. For example, to specify an alternate port use: c sftp -oPort=24 . For full details of the options listed below, and their possible values, see ssh_config(5)

  • sftp_server_path Connect directly to a local sftp server (rather than via ssh(1) This option may be useful in debugging the client and server.
  • num_requests Specify how many requests may be outstanding at any one time. Increasing this may slightly improve file transfer speed but will increase memory usage. The default is 16 outstanding requests.
  • program Name of the to use for the encrypted connection. The program must understand ssh(1) options.
  • sftp_server Specifies the SSH2 subsystem or the path for an sftp server on the remote host. A path is useful for using over protocol version 1, or when the remote sshd(8) does not have an sftp subsystem configured.
  • v Raise logging level. This option is also passed to ssh.
  • INTERACTIVE COMMANDS

    Once in interactive mode, understands a set of commands similar to those of ftp(1) Commands are case insensitive. Pathnames that contain spaces must be enclosed in quotes. Any special characters contained within pathnames that are recognized by glob(3) must be escaped with backslashes
    • bye Quit
    • path Change remote directory to
    • path Change group of file to may contain glob(3) characters and may match multiple files. must be a numeric GID.
    • path Change permissions of file to may contain glob(3) characters and may match multiple files.
    • path Change owner of file to may contain glob(3) characters and may match multiple files. must be a numeric UID.
    • exit Quit
    • get Retrieve the and store it on the local machine. If the local path name is not specified, it is given the same name it has on the remote machine. may contain glob(3) characters and may match multiple files. If it does and is specified, then must specify a directory. If the flag is specified, then full file permissions and access times are copied too.
    • help Display help text.
    • path Change local directory to
    • path Display local directory listing of either or current directory if is not specified. may contain any flags supported by the local system's ls(1) command. may contain glob(3) characters and may match multiple files.
    • path Create local directory specified by
    • newpath Create a symbolic link from to
    • lpwd Print local working directory.
    • ls Display a remote directory listing of either or the current directory if is not specified. may contain glob(3) characters and may match multiple files.
    The following flags are recognized and alter the behaviour of c ls accordingly:
    • 1 Produce single columnar output.
    • a List files beginning with a dot
  • f Do not sort the listing. The default sort order is lexicographical.
  • l Display additional details including permissions and ownership information.
  • n Produce a long listing with user and group information presented numerically.
  • r Reverse the sort order of the listing.
  • S Sort the listing by file size.
  • t Sort the listing by last modification time.
  • umask Set local umask to
  • path Create remote directory specified by
  • progress Toggle display of progress meter.
  • put Upload and store it on the remote machine. If the remote path name is not specified, it is given the same name it has on the local machine. may contain glob(3) characters and may match multiple files. If it does and is specified, then must specify a directory. If the flag is specified, then the file's full permission and access time are copied too.
  • pwd Display remote working directory.
  • quit Quit
  • newpath Rename remote file from to
  • path Delete remote file specified by
  • path Remove remote directory specified by
  • newpath Create a symbolic link from to
  • version Display the protocol version.
  • command Execute in local shell.
  • ! Escape to local shell.
  • ? Synonym for help.
