Instructing the Remote SFTP Proxy Server to Establish an SFTP Connection

In the process of establishing a Secure Shell tunnel, Connectivity Secure Shell may require user interaction. When the FTP client resides on the same machine as the SFTP proxy server, the server posts the necessary dialogs to prompt for information. However, when the FTP client is on a different machine, the SFTP proxy server initiates these interactions by means of authentication requests. In such a case, you can supply the necessary information using the SITE AUTHREPLY extensions.

To set up an SFTP connection with a remote SFTP proxy server:

Follow the instructions provided in Establishing an SFTP Connection, ensuring that you set the REMOTECLIENT parameter to a value of 1. To provide the information requested by the server, you can use the SITE AUTHRPLY extensions.
