NAME

       psftp - interactive SFTP (secure file transfer protocol) client

SYNOPSIS

       psftp [options] [user@]host

DESCRIPTION

       psftp is an interactive text-based client for the SSH-based SFTP (secure file transfer) protocol.

OPTIONS

       The command-line options supported by psftp are:

       -V     Show version information and exit.

       -pgpfp Display  the  fingerprints  of  the  PuTTY PGP Master Keys and exit, to aid in verifying new files
              released by the PuTTY team.

       -b batchfile
              Use specified batchfile.

       -bc    Output batchfile commands.

       -be    Don't stop batchfile processing on errors.

       -v     Show verbose messages.

       -load session
              Load settings from saved session.

       -P port
              Connect to port port.

       -l user
              Set remote username to user.

       -batch Disable interactive prompts.

       -pw password
              Set remote password to password. CAUTION: this will likely make  the  password  visible  to  other
              users of the local machine (via commands such as `w').

       -1     Force use of SSH protocol version 1.

       -2     Force use of SSH protocol version 2.

       -C     Enable SSH compression.

       -i path
              Private key file for user authentication.

       -hostkey key
              Specify  an  acceptable host public key. This option may be specified multiple times; each key can
              be either a fingerprint (99:aa:bb:...) or a base64-encoded blob in OpenSSH's one-line format.

              Specifying this option overrides automated host key management; only the key(s) specified  on  the
              command-line  will  be  accepted  (unless  a saved session also overrides host keys, in which case
              those will be added to), and the host key cache will not be written.

       -sshlog logfile

       -sshrawlog logfile
              These options make psftp log protocol details to a file. (Some of these may be sensitive, although
              by default an effort is made to suppress obvious passwords.)

              -sshlog  logs  decoded  SSH  packets  and  other  events  (those  that -v would print). -sshrawlog
              additionally logs the raw encrypted packet data.
