SCP Component

Properties   Methods   Events   Configuration Settings   Errors  

The SCP component can be used to transfer files to and from SSH servers using the Secure Copy Protocol (SCP).

Syntax

IPWorksSSH.Scp

Remarks

The SCP component is the SSH-enabled equivalent of the IPWorks RCP component. The SSHHost and SSHPort properties specify the SSH server to use. The SSHUser and SSHPassword properties allow the client to authenticate itself with the server. The SSHServerAuthentication event and/or SSHAcceptServerHostKey property allow you to check the server identity. Finally, the SSHStatus event provides information about the SSH handshake.

The SCP component implements a standard SCP File Transfer client.

The first step in using the component is specifying the SSHHost, SSHUser and SSHPassword. The file to upload to or download from is given by the RemoteFile property. The file to download to or upload from is specified by LocalFile.

If LocalFile is set to something other than an empty string, then files are received in LocalFile, otherwise the data is received through the Transfer event. StartTransfer and EndTransfer are fired at the beginning and end of transmission.
