Hi there,

Am new to Pragma fortress app, while when migrating our sftp related app from Linux to Windows, we found that in Pragma fortress world there is no such "ConnectTimeout" option in sftp command.

We would like to know that how to setup a connection timeout in Pragma fortress world when using sftp connection, we need such setting in case the connection is hanged during establishing the connection.

The first thing to check is that you are using the latest sftp client. At the command prompt, type "which sshdll.dll -d" and "which sftp.exe -d". The commands will give you the version number of your client. If you are not running the latest build, then you can update at www.pragmasys.com/ssh-client/download. You can get the latest build on the same page.

I understand this is a production system, so you can install to a different machine, then copy the files, sftp.exe, ssh.exe, and sshdll.dll to the production server, saving your original programs. This will allow you to roll back if you have any issue.

Alex,

The new feature you requested of -oConnectionTimeout has been implemented and is part of the new release.  You can download the server at www.pragmasys.com/ssh-server/download or the client only at www.pragmasys.com/ssh-client/download.

The feature is part of the client so you only have to install the client.

Hi, we appear to be using 5.0.9.2904.  It will take us a bit of work to test and eventually deploy the latest/newer version.
In the meantime, could you pls kindly advise whether using the -okeepalive=yes option might help with our particular issue?

You are running a very old build. Since there is no keepalive feature as of yet, you would have to update to the latest build anyway. I suggest you update to the latest release and see if that fixes your issue.
