SFTP Transfer Capabilities

[c0fe]

I personally really dislike having to deal with nano, vi, vim, emacs whatever and rather just to be able to transfer the file I need out and make the edits I need and transfer it back in. Nothing crazy but a simple file transfer (sftp protocol) would be appreciated.

[sinnlosername]

You could use scp for that. Or filezilla.

[c0fe]

@sinnlosername you could but I rather not have to switch around programs if I can help it. MobaXterm allows for file transfer capabilities but it isn't as nice looking as Terminus.

[c0fe]

@Eugeny any updates on this?

xterm has a zmodem addon, which can be used to transfer files.

[XianwuLin]

It's import for me to add this function. Sometimes I can't use stfp transfor files to my pc, because those servers can't be connected directly to my computer.

[Ansen]

I have hundreds of servers, I don't want to manage more than one configuration, so I need the sftp function to let me transfer files quickly on the current session.

I don't believe in closed-source fee-based software.

Thank you for your contribution, it makes the world a better place.

@Eugeny Any update?

[Eugeny]

@xuanyuanaosheng no updates yet. It's a gigantic chunk of work that I have no time to approach yet.

[xuanyuanaosheng]

@Eugeny Looking forward to SFTP function. Thanks

Even Kitty have option to call external File transfer program, like WinSCP, just uncomment 1 line in kitty configuration file. I hope we can have such support in Terminus.

+1 I would really love for SFTP functions to be integrated into Terminus

[howar31]

still need this in 2021

[FrederickTF]

+1 It is the only missing feature that i need to jump from mobaxterm to terminus

[Eugeny]

I've added an experimental implementation to the nightly (accessible via the connection toolbar) - currently it can only upload and download single files - more to come

[IrwenXYZ]

@Eugeny sorry for the ping, but where can I report issues for this feature, or nightlies in general?

[Eugeny]

@IrwenXYZ right here on the issue tracker - just create new issues.

[ghost]

I'm about to lose it, currently on latest nightly build and I have scavenged the entire program for this feature. Could you give more specific steps on how to access SFTP?

[Eugeny]

@alejandro-sosa hover on the "..." in the top right corner to reveal the toolbar, or access SFTP from the context menu

[lfkdev]

[ghost]

Nothing shows up, I don't see any three dots button anywhere either. Am I missing something important?

[IrwenXYZ]

@alejandro-sosa you need to be connected to a remote server via SSH first. once you're connected, you can see the "..." button at the top right of the screen

[Eugeny]

[alansenairj]

Is it possible to put download function in SFTP on remote host? It only has upload and delete function.

[Eugeny]

@alansenairj click a file to download it.

[alansenairj]

Thank you! But in my case I need to download folders. Are there some way to do that?

@alansenairj click a file to download it.

[Eugeny]

Not yet - here's a tracking issue: #4946

[c0fe]

@Eugeny the one I have to add is that if you are using something like LXC, the SFTP function doesn't follow.

[Eugeny]

@c0fe could you elaborate? Do you mean you're connecting to a remote host and then to a container on the remote host? If you're just running ssh on the remote side, a terminal wouldn't know about that, but you can set up an SSH profile in Tabby using the container host as an SSH jump host and then connecting to the container.

[c0fe]

@Eugeny correct, you connect to the remote host and then through that go into the container. yeah you can setup openssh on the container and then run it directly in it but I thought perhaps there has been some kind of an update to address this.

[Eugeny]

Well, SFTP can't follow you into a container if the container has no SFTP server in it.

[c0fe]

@Eugeny but it does

[alansenairj]

Guys, it does based on authentication of ssh server. Just copy to container using ssh-copy-id for better results.

"To access your sftp from other hosts, please make sure following is installed and configured properly.

Installed OpenSSH servers
Configured sshd_config
PubkeyAuthentication yes
Subsystem sftp internal-sftp
Added your public key to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

Start the ssh server with port 22/TCP open # /etc/init.d/sshd start

iptables -I INPUT -j ACCEPT -p tcp --dport 22

Finally, test $ sftp @"

SSH console login working but SFTP does not, why?

I am trying to SFTP with Filezilla but it is not able to connect to the server and I think this is due to my firewall rules?

I can SSH absolutely fine. The port for SSH is 6128. Can anyone tell me...
