performs all operations over an encrypted +.Xr ssh 1 +transport. +It may also use many features of ssh, such as public key authentication and +compression. +.Pp +The +.Ar destination +may be specified either as +.Sm off +.Oo user @ Oc host Op : path +.Sm on +or as a URI in the form +.Sm off +.No sftp:// Oo user @ Oc host Oo : port Oc Op / path . +.Sm on +.Pp +If the +.Ar destination +includes a +.Ar path +and it is not a directory, +.Nm +will retrieve files automatically if a non-interactive +authentication method is used; otherwise it will do so after +successful interactive authentication. +.Pp +If no +.Ar path +is specified, or if the +.Ar path +is a directory, +.Nm +will log in to the specified +.Ar host +and enter interactive command mode, changing to the remote directory +if one was specified. +An optional trailing slash can be used to force the +.Ar path +to be interpreted as a directory. +.Pp +Since the destination formats use colon characters to delimit host +names from path names or port numbers, IPv6 addresses must be +enclosed in square brackets to avoid ambiguity. +.Pp +The options are as follows: +.Bl -tag -width Ds +.It Fl 4 +Forces +.Nm +to use IPv4 addresses only. +.It Fl 6 +Forces +.Nm +to use IPv6 addresses only. +.It Fl A +Allows forwarding of +.Xr ssh-agent 1 +to the remote system. +The default is not to forward an authentication agent. +.It Fl a +Attempt to continue interrupted transfers rather than overwriting +existing partial or complete copies of files. +If the partial contents differ from those being transferred, +then the resultant file is likely to be corrupt. +.It Fl B Ar buffer_size +Specify the size of the buffer that +.Nm +uses when transferring files. +Larger buffers require fewer round trips at the cost of higher +memory consumption. +The default is 32768 bytes. +.It Fl b Ar batchfile +Batch mode reads a series of commands from an input +.Ar batchfile +instead of +.Em stdin . +Since it lacks user interaction, it should be used in conjunction with +non-interactive authentication to obviate the need to enter a password +at connection time (see +.Xr sshd 8 +and +.Xr ssh-keygen 1 +for details). +.Pp +A +.Ar batchfile +of +.Sq \- +may be used to indicate standard input. +.Nm +will abort if any of the following +commands fail: +.Ic get , put , reget , reput , rename , ln , +.Ic rm , mkdir , chdir , ls , +.Ic lchdir , copy , cp , chmod , chown , +.Ic chgrp , lpwd , df , symlink , +and +.Ic lmkdir . +.Pp +Termination on error can be suppressed on a command by command basis by +prefixing the command with a +.Sq \- +character (for example, +.Ic -rm /tmp/blah* ) . +Echo of the command may be suppressed by prefixing the command with a +.Sq @ +character. +These two prefixes may be combined in any order, for example +.Ic -@ls /bsd . +.It Fl C +Enables compression (via ssh's +.Fl C +flag). +.It Fl c Ar cipher +Selects the cipher to use for encrypting the data transfers. +This option is directly passed to +.Xr ssh 1 . +.It Fl D Ar sftp_server_command +Connect directly to a local sftp server +(rather than via +.Xr ssh 1 ) . +A command and arguments may be specified, for example +.Qq /path/sftp-server -el debug3 . +This option may be useful in debugging the client and server. +.It Fl F Ar ssh_config +Specifies an alternative +per-user configuration file for +.Xr ssh 1 . +This option is directly passed to +.Xr ssh 1 . +.It Fl f +Requests that files be flushed to disk immediately after transfer. +When uploading files, this feature is only enabled if the server +implements the "fsync@openssh.com" extension. +.It Fl i Ar identity_file +Selects the file from which the identity (private key) for public key +authentication is read. +This option is directly passed to +.Xr ssh 1 . +.It Fl J Ar destination +Connect to the target host by first making an +.Nm +connection to the jump host described by +.Ar destination +and then establishing a TCP forwarding to the ultimate destination from +there. +Multiple jump hops may be specified separated by comma characters. +This is a shortcut to specify a +.Cm ProxyJump +configuration directive. +This option is directly passed to +.Xr ssh 1 . +.It Fl l Ar limit +Limits the used bandwidth, specified in Kbit/s. +.It Fl N +Disables quiet mode, e.g. to override the implicit quiet mode set by the +.Fl b +flag. +.It Fl o Ar ssh_option +Can be used to pass options to +.Nm ssh +in the format used in +.Xr ssh_config 5 . +This is useful for specifying options +for which there is no separate +.Nm sftp +command-line flag. +For example, to specify an alternate port use: +.Ic sftp -oPort=24 . +For full details of the options listed below, and their possible values, see +.Xr ssh_config 5 . +.Pp +.Bl -tag -width Ds -offset

+Specifies the port to connect to on the remote host. +.It Fl p +Preserves modification times, access times, and modes from the +original files transferred. +.It Fl q +Quiet mode: disables the progress meter as well as warning and +diagnostic messages from +.Xr ssh 1 . +.It Fl R Ar num_requests +Specify how many requests may be outstanding at any one time. +Increasing this may slightly improve file transfer speed +but will increase memory usage. +The default is 64 outstanding requests. +.It Fl r +Recursively copy entire directories when uploading and downloading. +Note that +.Nm +does not follow symbolic links encountered in the tree traversal. +.It Fl S Ar program +Name of the +.Ar program +to use for the encrypted connection. +The program must understand +.Xr ssh 1 +options. +.It Fl s Ar subsystem | sftp_server +Specifies the SSH2 subsystem or the path for an sftp server +on the remote host. +A path is useful when the remote +.Xr sshd 8 +does not have an sftp subsystem configured. +.It Fl v +Raise logging level. +This option is also passed to ssh. +.It Fl X Ar sftp_option +Specify an option that controls aspects of SFTP protocol behaviour. +The valid options are: +.Bl -tag -width Ds +.It Cm nrequests Ns = Ns Ar value +Controls how many concurrent SFTP read or write requests may be in progress +at any point in time during a download or upload. +By

32KB buffer is used. +.El +.El +.Sh INTERACTIVE COMMANDS +Once in interactive mode, +.Nm +understands a set of commands similar to those of +.Xr ftp 1 . +Commands are case insensitive. +Pathnames that contain spaces must be enclosed in quotes. +Any special characters contained within pathnames that are recognized by +.Xr glob 3 +must be escaped with backslashes +.Pq Sq \e . +.Bl -tag -width Ds +.It
