- mfincham 4y agoSFTP isn't really FTP over SSH, it's just a collision of naming.
- rollcat 4y ago> Isn't SFTP just ftp over SSH? FTP is a wholly different protocol, that has aged rather poorly. You might be thinking of FTPS, which is FTP with TLS. SFTP is its own thing and is actually decent/sane. > can this be used to create SSO-enabled SFTP? From another reply somewhere else in the comments, apparently yes.
- dave_universetf 4y agoSFTP is a sub-protocol of SSH (technically a "subsystem" in the RFC-speak), which implements features similar to "legacy" FTP. Anyway, our ssh server knows about sftp, so `sftp <host>` should just work.
- atonse 4y agoWonderful! How would it work with gui based clients for the check prompts? Just launches the browser? Can’t wait to try this.
