SecureFTP and Secure Copy Protocol
Discussion
I urgently need a company to provide this service and associated storage in the UK asap. Someone that can provide a turn-key service with support. Anyone know of a provider? not some one that will use a dedicated server and tell us to upload any SCP solution we want, more a ready to go service.
Thanks

Not a clue what "Turn Key" is. I'm assuming it's management speak in a similar vein to "oven ready staff".
Any unix host that provides a shell access will be doing so via SSH. This will mean that SFTP and SCP will be along for the ride (can't see any reason why you'd disable them to be honest).

It bsically means that it's ready to go - i.e. a car is delivered and works at the turn of a key. I think that's pretty much what you were describing anyway.
So management speak for "I want something that'll bloody work and not have me reading the manual and swearing.". In that case my response is spot on, they just need a SFTP client... like WinSFTP and their providers account details.
VSFtp (vsftpd) is a good SFTP server for linux/*nix systems. If thats the kind of thing your looking for?
Don't know of anyone offering this exact service, but getting hold of a server and setting this up should be relatively easy.
I use it myself at home and its very fast, apparently very secure.. and took all of 5 mins to configure

And Putty is a good client for Wintel.
Putty is a bugger to get working 'correctly' with Fedora core - you have to select UTF8 encoding and use a UTF8/16 font like "Lucida console". It's by far the best SSH client around though. Just thought i'd share that uselss tip with you all
