[cisco-voip] Problem wth freeSSHd SFTP backups on CCM 6.0

[jean-francois.guay at bell.ca]

In their litterature, they say that you should use the CLI "file get "
command to test your connection if you have issues. It might give you
more insight as to what is happening.  Sometimes it fails because of a
mismatch with the public key (SSH), especially if you keep switching
software.

Don't think I am necessarily on Cisco's side, I am just providing
insight on what worked for me.

I think the mistake was not being able to debug/log the SFTP session,
you have no method to troubleshoot -jason

 I wasted about 8 hours trying to get SFTP working with various server
software. I'm going to escalate with Cisco because this is ridiculous!!
If my new 6.0 install crashes in the meantime, I'm going to demand Cisco
come out and rebuild it from scratch.

At the end of the day, you are a tragic victim of Cisco's
short-sightedness.

Every Linux server on the planet has a native SFTP server built in, so 
those environments and users think this is the coolest thing ever.

For most environments that are running Windows, SFTP is not supported,
so we are forced to use really crappy applications to replicate this
single feature.

The solution is a mass email, phone and scream campaign to Cisco
forcing them to support FTP for the backups.

Which they won't do, because they have caught the Linux religion and
they drank the kool-aid.
