Simple command line sftp client

[Bill Smith]

First, thanks for those who helped me get the mindterm src to compile.

Second, I'm looking to add sftp client functionality to a small console =
app. (Specifically,
I'm creating an ant sftp task, for those familiar with ant). Is there an =
example
for doing simple sftp functions like copyTo or copyFrom? I've included a =
quick and
dirty test that I came up with, but I don't know if it's the correct =
approach.=20

A couple of additional questions/comments.

1) If the host key from the target server isn't present on the local =
machine, how can
   I identify that? With the code below, it just keeps on trucking. I'd =
like the ability
   to accept/reject based on the existence of the key, and optionally =
copy it down.

2) With the copyToRemote method, I noticed a small problem. For the =
second argument you
   can pass null (based on looking at the SSH2SFTPTransfer code). When =
it's null, the method
   fills in "." for you. The problem is in the name of the file on the =
remote end. With the
   code below, and the second arg as null, the name of the file on the =
remote end becomes
   ".test.txt". This seems like a bug.


Thx,
Bill
