sftp-handler is a filesystem handler for AmigaOS 4. The device SFTP:
shows each FTP and SFTP site you have set up as a folder, for example
SFTP:My server. Inside it are the files on the server: Workbench, the
Shell and every program can open, copy, rename, delete and save them as
on any other disk.

The sites are kept with the prefs program sftphprefs (name, protocol,
server, port, user, password, start folder, SFTP key file). Its "Test
connection" button tries the settings before you save them. The top level
of SFTP: only lists the sites: it does not connect and cannot be changed.
A site connects when its folder is first opened.

Features:

- FTP (passive mode, works behind NAT) and SFTP (SSH 2, through libssh2
  and AmiSSL).
- SFTP logins with password, keyboard-interactive or an OpenSSH key file;
  host keys are checked and kept in an OpenSSH known_hosts file.
- Passwords can be saved with the site, or asked for with a requester.
- Files of any size, reading from any position.
- Names with national characters (UTF-8 on the server), upper and lower
  case ignored as on any Amiga volume.
- Dates (SetDate, Copy CLONE) where the server allows it.
- Connections are made when needed, closed when idle and made again after
  network problems.

Requirements (not included, get them from OS4Depot):

- clib4.library 2.5 or newer:
  OS4Depot development/library/misc/clib4.lha
- AmiSSL 5 or newer (for SFTP):
  OS4Depot library/misc/amissl.lha
- filesysbox.library 54.8 or newer (AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition updates)

Installation: double-click Install, then start SYS:Prefs/sftphprefs and
add your sites. SFTPHandler.guide has all the details.

sftp-handler is public domain. It contains libssh2 (BSD licence) and
Expat (MIT licence); see Third-party.txt.
