Hello all,
I need to get files through SFTP server mounting on Windows to Unix Box.
Here it's not the passwordless SFTP and we have to use required authentications to pull the files from the Windows.

Till now what i know is UNIX based systems (Linux and OSX) come with SSH preinstalled and for windows we need to add some additional software to make the SSH programs available.

If you share your ideas about What are all the possible External settings needs to be done to make it work, that would be of great of help.

The way I do to get the files from the Windows platfom is that I install the Cygwin's package openssh on the windows, then I set up the ssh between the Linux and the Windows boxes. After that, I use SFTP stage to pull or send files between these two boxes.
