cfftp

Lets users implement File Transfer Protocol (FTP) operations.

File management tags, Internet Protocol tags

The tag syntax depends on the action attribute value. See the following sections:

cfhttp, cfldap, cfmail, cfpop

ColdFusion MX: Deprecated the agentname attribute. It might not work, and might cause an error, in later releases.

Use this tag to move files between a ColdFusion server and an FTP server.

This tag does not move files between a ColdFusion server and a client browser. You do this as follows:

To transfer files from a client to a ColdFusion server: cffile action = "upload"
To transfer files from a ColdFusion server to a client: the cfcontent tag

Security settings

ColdFusion MX security settings can prevent the cfftp tag from executing. If you run ColdFusion applications on a server that is used by multiple customers, consider the security of the files that the customer can move. For more information, see Configuring and Administering ColdFusion MX.

How can one integrate with an SFTP server using SSH? This seems to be a big problem, one that I need a solution to right away - and that I haven't been able to find any additoinal information on. Any help would be appreciated.
