SFTP with PI 7.1

Hello,
Does the PI 7.1 version have new abilities to connect to SFTP protocol compared to older versions
(I work now with xi 3.0 sp 19)?
Thank you
Elad

Hi Elad,
sFTP has never been supported by PI - only FTPS is supported by the file adapter.
You can use following workaround:
Storing a File by sFTP:
Use File Adapter to store file on local app server plus call a operating system script that will do the sFTP transfer from app server to target server. In case you have a unix based app server, sFTP is a built in functionality.
Of course, this approach does have some disadvantages but at least you will be able to use your PI to transfer by sFTP.
Retrieve a File by sFTP:
Works the same. Here, first call the OS Script that will retrieve the file from source Server to local App Server. Then use file Adapter to get the file form local app.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Markus

Using secure FTP (SFTP) with XI 3.0.

Hi,
I must bring a document with SFTP protocol.
Is it possible use SFTP with XI 3.0. What must I do use SFTP with XI. Is it necessary to install some component to XI or it needs some 3hrd party components?
Thanks

Hi Cemil,
Right now, XI does not have the feature of communicating with SFTP. You can extend the functionality of the File Adapter by writing some adapter modules to enable it to communicate with SFTP.

How to transfer encrypted file using B2B sftp with custom doc over generic

hi ,
we have a requirement to get and send an encrypted file to/from our trading partner.
Previously we configured B2B sftp with custom doc. over generic exchange protocol to get a text file and used 1st 11 charecters in the file as identifier for the TPA configuration and successfully processed the file. Since we are getting an encrypted file , we need to find a way to identify the TPA config. .
Please reply to this thread if you have any suggestions. Pls. feel free to ask if you need more information to understand the situation.
thanks
srini

hi Ramesh,
I have sent mail to you . We are actually using file name convensions but we are using internal delivery as B2B InQuueue . And when we use custom document over generic exchange , in the paramenters we do not see any file name property. i hava also sent you the TPA so that you can get idea of the configuration we did.
thanks
Srini

Idoc to File Scenario(SFTP) with special requirement

Hi experts,
We have a scenario Idoc-->File(SFTP), in which one field which is having multi-line and we want that field as structured below.
Expected Output-

As you can see in the expected output, the payment node is itself a flat file king of structure. And it should be as its shown above.
Can this be done with any custom module or ABAP code? Please suggest over the scenario.
Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Nidhi Srivastava

Thanks for your replies.
I know the requirement is bit unclear. Now, the client gave a second option.
They are telling if the file say xyz.txt(flat file content- mapped to payment node) is there in unix directory and PI picks the file there. Now, the XMLtags needs to be added to this picked file as shown in the above structure.
xyz.txt

Problem with sFTP with Dreamweaver CS4

SFTP won't work with my DW CS4. Login is successful when I use FTP but as soon as I check the box for sFTP it won't work. The same login using SFTP in Filezilla works fine too. I called my host and they said to use port 2222 (which works with Filezilla). Have no idea if there's a way to change this in DW.
I know DW is notoriously known to be a poor FTP client. Please help. SFTP is so much more secure than FTP and is a must. Thanks!

"Note: Port 21 is the default port for receiving FTP connections, however server administrators sometimes change the port setting to another port to prevent unauthorized FTP access. In those situations, you can append a colon and the port number to the FTP host entry. For example, if the port is 29, you would enter ftp.mindspring.com:29."

Seeburger SFTP with conversion

Hi all,
I need to download simple xml structure form sap proxy to SFTP tab delimited file on SFTP server <<XXX>> on path <<YYY>>:
file structure:
<head>
<root>
<data1>
<data2>
<root>
<root>
<data1>
<data2>
<root>
</head>
localejbs/Seeburger/solution/sftp
localejbs/AF_Modules/StrictXml2PlainBean
localejbs/ModuleProcessorExitBean
parameters:
dataRec.fieldSeparator - \t
singleRecordType - dataRec
When using this on some SFTP server <<XXX>> (or using StrictXML2PlainBean module on FTP server) i got expected result on some path <<ZZZ>> with key <Z>.
data1 data2
data1 data2...
But for some paths <YYY> on that same SFTP server <<XXX>> (using key <X> ) this generates file
data 1 data2
... with lot of empty rows but file size is same as when generated correctly.
Tried using AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean also and got same result.
Have anybody have ever similar situation? Is this bug with SFTP adapter or something additional need to be configure in SFTP adapter?
When I put file manually on SFTP server it is there copied fine so no authorization or connection problem.
Best regards,
Nenad

Hi,
I tried also SimpleXML2Plain before with same result.
Problem I cannot explain is that on same SFTP server I have 2 different keys for 2 different paths. On one path\key works flawless and I leave CC as it is and change just key in SFTP adapter and path = on other path shows just first line and lots of spaces and empty rows (well in the middle of data there is some random data row) .
And there is no authorization or connection problem as I can simply manually copy new files.

N.

Offline SFTP with Lion

Looking for some advice.
Currently, I have a SFTP server setup with a manually assigned IP address for file sharing through GoodReader. The goal is a file server for, initially, 40 iPads to connect to for downloading PDFs. Due to workplace restrictions, I need to maintain this SFTP server without an active connection to the Internet. It needs to be considered "off the LAN".
Besides Ad Hoc, which I understand to be limited to 2 devices (Mac to device), what options are there to keep an active SFTP server going without Internet access?
I've racked my brain trying to think of a way of creating a constant wifi network without Internet access.I

I think what you're getting at is that the SFTP server has to be available only on a network separate from your organization's network, to which the iPad clients would connect. There are various ways your network administrator could set that up, but maybe the simplest one is to dedicate a wireless access point to it, such as an AirPort. Connect the server only to that access point, and it will be unavailable from the LAN.

Publish SFTP with UAG

Hello
Is it possible and if so, can anyone provide direction for publishing an SFTP server with UAG?
I'm essentially looking for direct proxy with no UAG portal authentication.
Thank you!

UAG is a HTTP/HTTPS proxy. Even Microsoft pushed as VPN gateway for a while and TMG is underneath forwarding/publishing of anything else then HTTP/HTTPS is not supported, see also http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee522953.aspx. So technically you
can access the TMG console and add rules to publish port 22 for SSH/SFTP but it is not supported from Microsoft.
Hope that helps,
Lutz

Any way to use SFTP with ACS SE?

We're trying to keep ftp out of our network and I'd like to know if there is anyway to get sftp to work with the ACS Applicance or if there's another option for backups/restores other than ftp?

Currently the only way to secure a database backup is by encrypting it using a key from the section,
System configuration > ACS Backup > and put any key to encrypt the database backup from "Encryption Password" and check "Encrypt Backup File", and take a backup.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/cisco_secure_access_control_server_for_windows/4.1/user/SCBasic.html#wp222491
Other then that we already have an enhancement request open with us,

SFTP with OS Command

Hello everyone,
Our scenarios are
IDOC > XI > FTP over SSH
and
FTP over SSH > XI > IDOC
Since XI 3.0 does not support sftp (ftp over ssh) i am trying to find a way to go round this problem by dumping a file on the xi server using a receier NFS file adapter and then executing an os command that will ssh it to it the target.
Has anyone out there ever tried this before? Has it worked?
How would one go about handling the sender file adapter in order to bring in files?
Thanks in advance
Dimitris

Hi,
<i>Has anyone out there ever tried this before? Has it worked?</i>
>>>Yes, it worked successfully.
There are 2 approaches here.
1) Execute the shell script from the XI, via OS command. Here there may be a chances of the Queue problems, message stuck etc if huge no. of files are tranferred. Because, if script is not executed successfully, then SXMB_MONI will not show the status success. This condition will happen rarely based on the file transactions.
--- Also , advatage is , XI is able to monitor, give the audit information saying the sript has been executed or not etc. To monitor
2) Second approach is , execute the shell script independently from the OS level , independent of XI. Ie. these scripts will run in the batch job in the OS level and it will transfer the files from the directory into required destination.
In this case, XI is not responsible to execute the shells script.
But monitoring of these shell script should be out of XI's scope.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Moorthy

Can't establish a sftp connection with the finder

Hi, I'm trying to establish a sftp connection with the finder (using the "Connect to server" feature) between my (recently purchased) Mac Mini (mid 2011: i5, 2.3 GHz, 2 GB, running 10.7.3) and a Debian Testing box and I can't, I get the following error:
'There was a problem connecting to the server "ip.address"
This file server will not allow any additional users to log on. Try to connect again later.'
However if I try establishing a connection from the terminal (either ssh or sftp) it works flawlessly:
SSH:
victoria:~ RonIn$ ssh [email protected]

SFTP:

Connected to ip.address.
sftp>
I've searched for a fix or alternative on the internet and I haven't found one that works; The one that keeps coming up is to try: "ftps" as the protocol instead of "sftp" with the remaining information the same (it doesn't work, it gets the same error message afterwards).
The IP address and login information works (corroborated by the fact that I can log in from the terminal from the Mac Mini) so the only issue is with the finder capabilities for establishing the connection. I have looked for apple related documentation or How Tos but I haven't found anything useful.
I don't want to use any third party app or tweak because of the sensitive information that is going to be transfered, I would like to be using strictly the tools from the OS.
If you need any more information please let me know, any help is deeply appreciated.

I have the same issue although i kind of fixed it. I have two admin accounts and one of the account's safari did the same thing as yours, except, it was the startpage and everypage i tried to visit. I reseted safari, as in the erase all data safari in the toolbar, safari-Reset Safari... But safari still didn't work. I logged out and went to my other account and opened safari. Now it works fine on both accounts. This meant safari had to logout before actually working better. I have this a few times these days.

SFTP connection issue with Dreamweaver 2014

I have a very weird SFTP connection issue with Dreamweaver CC (2014). I am on a Mac running 10.9.4 and have no problem connecting to my server through SFTP with Dreamweaver CS 6. However, using the exact same settings on CC (2014), I get the following error: "An FTP error occurred - cannot make connection to host. Your login or password is incorrect. Please check your connection information".
I am truly at a loss here. Command line connection works without problems.
Any thoughts?

Hi there,
Try after rebooting your system or in a different user account on MAC.
Is there any limit with number of login sessions with your SFTP?
Could you check with Filezila or similar FTP client and connect to your site, see if you get any error there?
Thanks.
