using fzsftp via command prompt

#1 Post by bdeschambault » 2009-10-20 02:06

I am trying to issue commands to the fzsftp.exe file via the command prompt but can't get past the open command. After open is invoked it puts a > on the next line and does not allow anymore text to be entered.

The reason I am trying to use the fzsftp.exe instead of psftp is because of a bug I found with psftp that is not occuring in my version of filezilla. When I download a single file that exceeds approximately 2000 MB using sftp, after the 2000 MB maker the data downloads very slowly. Anyone know why this is? If not, how can I perform the same tasks using fzsftp?

It is modified to be used with FileZilla. I don't think you can run it directly.

2^31, the limit for signed 32 bit integers is exactly 2 GiB. What filesystem are you using on your computer? Which SSH server software are you using?

I am using GlobalScape as the SFTP server. I am running windows XP, so I assume that it is NTFS. On the same machine, the file can be downloaded with FileZilla with no delay.

Tried a different SFTP server such as the superior OpenSSH yet?
