The closest I've come to sftp under Windows is the following:
- the server has to be running SSH v1
- use TeraTerm Pro + TTSSH to connect to host
- configure TeraTerm to do port forwarding to remote host ftp port (this
configuration can be saved, so in future sessions the forwarding is done
automatically on startup)
- configure FTP client to connect to the local port which is being
forwarded, plus passive transfers; under WS-FTP this is quite easy, and
the profile for the connection can be saved under a nickname
This setup may sound complicated, but once configured the user only has
to start a remote ssh session and then their ftp client.
Hope this helps.
