We are implementing an SFTP solution as well, but as most of the clients customers are small corner stores, about 60% don't have broadband, or even dialup internet. The Win95 computer and modem used to dialup a couple of times a week to the head office for pricing files works, so the customer asks why change it?
There is a plan to migrate all to a web services based model, but change is slow when the existing system works. You have to show the benefits to the bottom line to change a system that works. Thanks to all for your feedback.

I ran a RemoteAcess BBS for a few years. It was fairly easy to configure and manage and appears to still be supported. http://www.rapro.com/index.html But I have to wonder, why not uses some type of secure FTP instead?

The original is using Zoc but I am looking for any experience out there with other software. 'Wildcat! Interactive Net Server' seems to be the only one around that is reasonably supported. Is there any experience with type of setup still in use out there? Thanks in advance for any feedback.
