Hi,
Is there a way to use SFTP instead of FTP? I have checked the firewall and it does support SFTP so if Windows Batch script also has functionality to sftp a file then we would like to go for it? Also while SFTP can we get logs of the transaction?

In your last thread somebody asked you for information, and you chose to ignore it.
You still want a log file - and this seems to be the primary goal according your your last thread .

I did reply to all the folks that asked me some or the other question. I will again check if i have missed any question and in that case will reply back. Anyways its not just about the log file, i wanted to know if we can use sftp as well. If yes then i would like to go for it due to security reasons.

1) Windows does not have a native SFTP client.
2) Doesn't matter if it is a FTP or SFTP command line client. You would log them the same way.

Thanks! I thought SFTP is secure and that's why i thought of using it. Using the native ftp client i am not able to get "Transfer completed" message when file is ftp'd.
