You must have missed the previous posts where I received permission from Software AG to post the info, I put up a link for download.
In follow up to your other comments, based on conversations with the guy that downloaded the package, I was pretty certain the package came from SoftwareAG. If we download a package that we have a license to do so and then I post it to the internet without their permission, unlicensed users could then download it and use it even though they never paid for the license. Most of our 8.0 packages could be used in WM 6.5 with no problem. If a user had let their license expire and were no longer paying support to SoftwareAG and then we put an 8.0 package out there, they would be using a package that they did not have access to per their license. To me that is giving away software to users who had not paid the appropriate licensing for. To me it would be no different than someone posting a free download for Windows 8 when a lot of people have not paid for that license yet.
If we had developed a package in house and (with appropriate internal approvals) decided to make it available for download that would be a different story.
The good news is that since waSFTP was a “sample” package, SoftwareAG gave approval for us to make it available for download.
Yes, SFTP will be an official release with more sophisticated UI’s for management and its not an OpenSSH implementation, instead its JSch library. Which has both username/Password and public key auth.
You are right. SFTP will be added to wM, but I believe it will be in version 10, so until that version comes out and systems are upgrade to it, people need a good solution. I ended up using the simpler yet efficient Putty instead of this weird package.
Hi,
It will be a built in feature for WM 9.0(Excited about other features like command central, Mobile, Cloudstream too ) GA is scheduled on mid or end of June. But alternatively i would prefer OpenSSH implementation(With public key auth), because I am using it in my current implementation for cx and its works pretty well(But you need to do lot of exception handling through wrapper).
