Topic: [OK] Cannot connect via SFTP
I am able to access my project's Web area using FTP without any problems. However, I have so far not been able to get SFTP to work.
When I try FileZilla 3.0.0-beta2 on Debian or 3.2.1 on Windows XP, I get to following:
Status: Connecting to sftp.tuxfamily.net...
Response: fzSftp started
Command: open "<my username>@sftp.tuxfamily.net" 22
Command: Pass: ********
Status: Connected to sftp.tuxfamily.net
Error: Fatal: unable to initialise SFTP on server: could not connect
Error: Could not connect to server
I am using the following settings in FileZilla:
Host: sftp.tuxfamily.net (I also tried sftp.tuxfamily.org and saw the same behavior)
Port: [blank]
Server Type: SFTP - SSH File Transfer Protocol
Logontype: Normal
User: <my username>
Password: <my password>
When I try sftp at the command line in Debian, I get
Received message too long 173303913
When I try from WinSCP on Windows, I get
Cannot initialize SFTP protocol. Is the host running a SFTP server?
Am I missing something?
