Interoperability between sftp and ftp GUI from ssh.com?

["Thomas Gebhardt" <gebhardt@HRZ.Uni-Marburg.DE>]

Hi,

I am looking for a convenient and secure way for file transfer
between the MS world and a GNU/Linux Server.

The Windows client from ssh.com provides a GUI for file transfer
over ssh. I wonder whether sftp from Brian Wellington
(bwelling@xbill.org) (debian package: sftp) implements the same
protocol?

A quick test with OpenSSH 2.3 + sftp 0.9.5 and SSH 2.1 Windows
Client did not succeed.

Thanks for any hint!

Thomas
