How can you FTP with SSH using CF 7?

[retrocane]

We're migrating content to new servers that require SSH connection for FTP.

Currently the CF code uses CFFTP tag to transfer files from the test to production servers; but what will I need to do to have the CF code transfer files over SSH?

The servers are using CF version 7 and run on IIS.

Thank you,
Josh

You don't! Maybe in CF8, but not with cf7.

I used a custom tag called cfx_SecureFTP and cfx_SecureFTP. Can't find them anymore on Google, but I could email you what I have.

OR maybe this would work for you:
http://www.jscape.com/sftp/index.html
" did this just recently for a client. We implemented a fairly simple
solution using Jscape Secure FTP Factory for Java. It works well, however I
was not able to get listeners to work, so reporting on successfully
transfers is not great. I do a directory listing after the upload and look
for the file I just uploaded. This works in my case, because the file name
is always unique. Might not work for you. Maybe you can find a better way.
The url is http://www.jscape.com/sftp/index.html it costs $499.00.

This is the code we used to implement it:

<cfset jarpath = 'C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\WEB-INF\lib\sftp.jar'>


<cfscript>

system = CreateObject("java", "java.lang.System");
classpath = system.getProperty("java.class.path");
if (FindNoCase("sftp", classpath) LTE 0)
{
classpath = classpath & ";#jarpath#";
system.setProperty("java.class.path",classpath);
}


util = CreateObject("java", "com.jscape.inet.ssh.util.SshParameters");
sLogin =
util.init('#dailyftp_profiles.ftpaddress#','#dailyftp_profiles.username#','#dailyftp_profiles.
password#');
sftpObject = CreateObject("java", "com.jscape.inet.sftp.Sftp");
sftp = sftpObject.init(sLogin);

// connect and set timeout
sftp.connect();
sftp.setTimeout(1000);

// set remote directory if requested
if (#dailyftp_profiles.homedirectory# neq ''){
sftp.setDir("#dailyftp_profiles.homedirectory#");
}

sftp.setAuto(true);
// upload the file
sftp.upload("#request.general_tempfile_root##tempfilename#");
sftp.renameFile("#tempfilename#","#remoteFileName#");
//get listing
dirListing2 = sftp.getDirListingAsString();
// disconnect from SSH server
sftp.disconnect();
</cfscript>

<!--- check that the file was uploaded --->
<cfif not dirListing2 contains '#remoteFileName#'>
<!--- do error handling here for failed upload --->
</cfif>

Neo Rye -

I was also using a custom tag "cfx_SecureFTP" on ColdFusion MX7 for FTP uploading. I have no idea where it came from because it was set up by my predecessor.

Now I've upgraded to ColdFusion 9 and that custom tag won't work any more. Any ideas on why that might be?

Thanks!
