Unhappy Having trouble with secure FTP...

I'm probably just going about this all wrong, as I know nothing about SSL and FTP, but here's my problem.

I'm trying to connect to the secure FTP server on my college campus. I can connect to it just fine with SSH Secure Shell's FTP client, but that client is anoying, and I'd really like to use FlashFXP instead.

When I connect using SSH Secure Shell's client, I use all the default options, and it connects fine. I tried doing that with FlashFXP (port 21), and I got "connection refused". So I changed to port 22, and I get this text in my connection log:

[R] Connecting to falcon -> DNS=falcon.csc.calpoly.edu IP=129.65.242.5 PORT=22
[R] Connected to falcon
[R] SSH-2.0-Sun_SSH_1.1

for a few minutes, and then I guess the connection times out and I see:

[R] Connection failed (Connection lost)

That's with "Standard" selected in the SSL tab.

If I use "Implicit SSL" I get this:

[R] Connecting to falcon -> DNS=falcon.csc.calpoly.edu IP=129.65.242.5 PORT=22
[R] Connected to falcon
[R] Connected. Negotiating SSL session..
[R] SSL ERROR: unknown protocol
[R] Failed SSL negotiation, disconnected
[R] Connection failed (Connection closed by client)

If I use "Auth SSL" I get this text:

[R] Connecting to falcon -> DNS=falcon.csc.calpoly.edu IP=129.65.242.5 PORT=22
[R] Connected to falcon
[R] SSH-2.0-Sun_SSH_1.1

few a while, and then:

[R] Connection failed (Connection lost)

If I cancel curing the timeout between those last two messages, I get:

[R] QUIT
[R] Protocol mismatch.
[R] Connection failed (Connection lost)


Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Maybe FlashFXP doesn't support whatever security system the FTP I want to connect to uses? I don't understand anything about SSL FTP, so I'm competely lost as to why it won't work.

your site is using SSH's SFTP protocol.
it's a totally different protocol and is incompatible with SSL-FTP.
currently FlashFXP does not support SSH/SFTP.

Darn, I thought it might be that! Thanx for letting me know that it's a lost cause, for now.

Any timeline on when/if FlashFXP will support SFTP? It's surprising to me FlashFXP isn't supporting SFTP when clients like Dreamweaver and FileZilla do.

I have the same issue. my univ wants me to connect to their server Via SFTP using SSH.

It would be good to know if flashfxp is going to implement that anytime soon.

thanks
