David, I have gone through the Apache Sshd code and i know there is a sftpsubsystem there. But, what i am saying is if the Ftp clients have an option for SFtp, why not code it into the FtpServer.Also, having different FileSystemView and UserManager won't make sense as the operations performed are nearly the same.

As John says, it would be great if MINA SSHD and MINA FTPServer were compatible enough to implement the same FileSystem and "after " commands in both of them... If anyone is insterested in working that way, please do! There are several file transfer suites which offer both SFTP and FTP so I think this is an aspect in which we are lacking. 2012/7/15 John Hartnup <john.hart...@gmail.com> > Sftp and Ftps are completely different protocols.
