Following your advice, I did the following: =============================================== q...@durian(pts/0):~/opensrc/curl-7.19.6[115]$ ./configure --with-libssh2=/home/qxu/opensrc/libssh2-1.2/src/.libs -disable-shared ... configure: Configured to build curl/libcurl: curl version: 7.19.6 Host setup: i686-pc-linux-gnu Install prefix: /usr/local Compiler: gcc SSL support: enabled (OpenSSL) SSH support: enabled (libSSH2) zlib support: enabled krb4 support: no (--with-krb4*) GSSAPI support: no (--with-gssapi) SPNEGO support: no (--with-spnego) c-ares support: no (--enable-ares) ipv6 support: enabled IDN support: no (--with-libidn) Build libcurl: Shared=no, Static=yes Built-in manual: enabled Verbose errors: enabled (--disable-verbose) SSPI support: no (--enable-sspi) ca cert bundle: /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt ca cert path: no LDAP support: no (--enable-ldap / --with-ldap-lib / --with-lber-lib) LDAPS support: no (--enable-ldaps) q...@durian(pts/0):~/opensrc/curl-7.19.6[116]$ make ... libtool: link: warning: library `/usr/lib/libssh2.la' was moved. libtool: link: warning: library `/usr/lib/libssh2.la' was moved. libtool: link: gcc -g0 -O2 -Wno-system-headers -o curl main.o hugehelp.o urlglob.o writeout.o writeenv.o getpass.o homedir.o curlutil.o os-specific.o strtoofft.o strdup.o rawstr.o nonblock.o -L/usr/kerberos/lib -L/home/qxu/opensrc/libssh2-1.2/src/.libs/lib ../lib/.libs/libcurl.a -L/usr/lib /usr/lib/libssh2.so -lrt -lssl -lcrypto -ldl -lz make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/qxu/opensrc/curl-7.19.6/src' q...@durian(pts/0):~/opensrc/curl-7.19.6/src[118]$ ./curl --version curl 7.19.6 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.19.6 OpenSSL/0.9.8b zlib/1.2.3 libssh2/0.18 Protocols: tftp ftp telnet dict http file https ftps scp sftp Features: IPv6 Largefile NTLM SSL libz q...@durian(pts/0):~/opensrc/curl-7.19.6/src[119]$ ./curl -v -u qxu:fair123 -T CMakeLists.txt sftp://13.198.98.202/scan/test.txt * About to connect() to 13.198.98.202 port 22 (#0) * Trying 13.198.98.202... connected * Connected to 13.198.98.202 (13.198.98.202) port 22 (#0) * SSH authentication methods available: publickey,password * Using ssh public key file /home/qxu/.ssh/id_dsa.pub * Using ssh private key file /home/qxu/.ssh/id_dsa * SSH public key authentication failed: Unable to open public key file * Initialized password authentication * Authentication complete * Failure initializing sftp session: Timeout waiting for response from SFTP subsystem * Closing connection #0 curl: (2) Failure initializing sftp session: Timeout waiting for response from SFTP subsystem =============================================== In compiling libss2-1.2, I didn't use the switch "-disable-shared". Will this pose a problem? What is the possible cause of the transfer failure? Some other questions: 1. How come libtool gives me the warning /usr/lib/libssh2.la was moved. Haven't I pointed the library's location of libss2 to "/home/qxu/opensrc/libssh2-1.2/src/.libs"? 2. In the linking stage, why /usr/lib/libssh2.so is still looked for? 3. In the output of "./curl --version", it reported the version of libss2 is 0.18. Is it wrong?
