Hi Avinash, My quick take on this is why you would want to recreate a tool for this? Aren't there plenty of free SFTP apps already? Why not take advantage of one of them? Tortoise, Cute, WinSCP, FileZilla, etc.
Also, questions like these might be better asked on other forums like stack overflow. This mailing list is for questions and development regarding the next release of Flex.
