If you want to set up an SFTP server for windows and you are not looking for serious options, after some searching you would end up with installing Freesshd, a freeware SFTP server installer. Freesshd has been last updated in 2009 and is an orphan now. (Nobody cares if you have a problem working with it.)
Setting up SFTP server in windows OS is a pain, especially if you go with command line installations such as CYGWIN Openssh. Believe me, you need to spend some hours without results. Somehow i was unable to make Openssh work on my server. So, when I looked at other choices, within the deadline I had, had to choose freesshd for a test (not serious) SFTP server setup. It has a GUI for configuring the server options, which makes our life easier.
Installing Freesshd is walk in the park. don't wait, just go on selecting blah blah blah, as you do for all desktop app installations.
Mar 03, 2017 As I'd forgotten how to create a new OpenVPN user, it's not something I do every day, I thought I put here a reminder of the process used. To get a private key and a signed public key the easiest way is to use the Easy-RSA program that came with openvpn. OpenVPN will have no problem handling a 2048 bit RSA key if you have built OpenVPN with pthread support, to enable background processing of RSA keys. You can still use large keys even without pthread support, but you will see some latency degradation on the tunnel during SSL/TLS key negotiations. Generating OpenVPN static keys in memory? Ask Question Asked 9 years, 3 months ago. Active 9 years, 3 months ago. Viewed 795 times 0. I know I can generate an OpenVPN static key by 'openvpn -genkey -secret myfile.key'. In python, I am currently using a shell call to generate a key, open the 'myfile.key' and read it back in. Generate 2048 bit openvpn static key. How to create an OpenVPN static / pre-shared key with key size 4096 or 8192 bit? Openvpn -genkey Creates 2048 bit strong keys only. Encrypted communication between client and server will occur over UDP port 1194, the default OpenVPN port. Generate a static key: openvpn -genkey -secret static.key. Copy the static key to both client and server, over a pre-existing secure channel. Server configuration file dev tun ifconfig 10.8.0.1 10.8.0.2 secret static.key Client configuration file.
Here comes the tricky part, well some what. You must be having a freesshd shortcut icon on your desktop now. If not, look in start menu->all programs -> freesshd. Upon clicking it, you will be prompted with a gratitude message. After accepting it, look for the same icon in right down corner tray (date-time tray). Again, click on it.
You would be displayed with FreeSSHD settings window, with 'Server Status' tab opened. If you see a cross mark against SSH server, that means your SSH server is running as a windows service and don't worry about it. If you chose not to run it as a windows service while installing, then you must start it by 'Click here to Start'.
I am just concerned about SFTP server here. so, i will be skipping all other settings.
Switch on to 'SSH' tab. Listen Address - Select your machine IP address and leave everything as they are.
Switch on to 'Authentication' tab. this tab defines which authentication methods you would use for client authentication. That could be Password, Public key or both. It is good idea to use both.
Switch on to SFTP tab. Select a root SFTP directory, which your users can access.
Switch on to Users tab. Click on 'Add' to create virtual users. Give it a name. Here you can specify how each user is authenticated whether via windows login, or Password or public key. You can give each of them permissions to use Shell, SFTP and/or tunneling.
Switch on to Logging tab and check 'Log Events' box which is useful to debug the failure cases.
Go to C:Program FilesfreeSSHdKeys folder. Create a new text file and place your public key in one line removing all the comments. Save the file with exact username and without any extension.
Now, Click on Apply and OK. Right click on Tray icon, and click on 'Unload' and open desktop shortcut again, to take the changes effect . It is better to restart service (Run -> services.msc ->freesshd) as well, if you are running one.
Now, you can connect to the SFTP server using any clients such as WinSCP, PUTTY. Note that for Publick key authentication, you have to import your private key to SFTP client.
Well, issues you may fall into are quite general.
Freesshd is simple and perfect for setting up test SFTP server. But, it has it's own pitfalls regarding security as it is no longer taken care by it's creators. I have come across another good GUI SFTP setup software, Bitvisessh server. Bitvise presents more options and is more robust. If you want to use it for commercial purpose, you should buy the license.
