IE6 and SFTP? by hadji 2007-04-20 10:35:11
So, I've got an FTP server and an SFTP server. With the FTP server, I can use IE6 to browse to ftp://ftp.domain.com. Then I get prompted for the username and password, and after I enter them, I can drag and drop.

However, this does not seem to work with an SFTP server. Does anyone know how to coax IE6 into recognizing and using the SFTP protocol?

  What about using ftps:// by andyz2007-04-20 11:35:35
    FTPS != SFTP (n/t) by CynicalRyan2007-04-20 11:37:00
      *facepalm* Of course it isn't. by andyz2007-04-20 11:40:54
