SFTP is configured and enabled at the Site level. You can also disable and enable SFTP access at User Setting Level and user level.
To allow users to connect using SFTP
In EFT Administrator, connect to EFT Server and click the Server tab.
In the left pane, click the user you want to configure.
In the right pane, click the Security tab.
In the Protocols area, select the Enable SFTP protocol check box, if not inherited.
In the Authentication mode list, specify whether users are to connect using Password only, Public key only, or Public Key & Password.
Compliance with PCI DSS requires that users change their password upon initial login; since the Public key only mode does not use a password, it potentially violates the PCI DSS and is, therefore, not available with HS-PCI-enabled Sites. |
If you chose Public key only or Public Key & Password, in the Authentication key list, click Edit List. The SFTP Public Key Select dialog box appears.
The SFTP Public Keys that are defined for this Site appear in the dialog box. If no keys appear, see Creating an SSH Key Pair.
In the List of keys box, double-click the key(s) to use, or click each key, then click Add. The selected key(s) appear in the Keys valid for client list.
Click OK to close the SFTP Public Key Select dialog box. The selected key(s) appear in the Authentication key list.
Click Apply to save the changes on EFT Server.
