Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
I'm wondering if there's a way to use ssh/sftp instead of ftp for remote destinations. It's the only way I can access a client's server, hence the necessity.
Thanks.

ronan CreditAttribution: ronan commentedlooks like it may be possible to write a destination type for ssh/sftp with the ssh2 PECL extension: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ssh2-sftp.php
I'm not sure I'll have time to work on this though, so if somebody else wants to pick up this mantle I'd be happy to lend a hand with the integration part.

bkosborne+1. I'd be highly interested in this as well, probably implementing with ssh2-sftp. I'd be interesting in developing this when I get the time as well. Using FTP isn't practical.

This module adds SFTP destination support to Backup and Migrate. It is currently only for D7 - I need a D6 site admin's assistance in Beta testing if anybody wants a D6 release, and that will be as time permits. I haven't tested it for every possible use case, but it's working for me in a production environment.
ronan: I think this particular issue can/should be closed.

alienseer23 CreditAttribution: alienseer23 commentedI did manage to get the SFTP module to work with v3. There is a patch available, has been for months, module maintainer hasn't (wont?) put it in either the stable or dev version. I've been using it for months, works great. It's on the thread linked above.
