    I just installed the slimmed down version of OpenSSH on a Windows NT
    server (hope to get rid of FTP in the near future).

    http://lexa.mckenna.edu/sshwindows/

    The SSH part works fine...the SCP and SFTP part does not. If I use
    putty sftp to connect I get as far as typing in my password. After
    that, I get an error:

    Unable to initialise SFTP: could not connect.

    If I use WinSCP (despite the lack of a plugin for the newest version of
    the server, which might be the problem for WinSCP), it asks if I'm sure
    there's an SFTP server running.

    Any thoughts?

    Chris
