The latter tells me that this user does not have it configured, and I assume, possibly wrongly, that one of youse guys needs to go into wherever you manage users and set it up for him. It also leads me to suspect that the other two users are misconfigured. Yup. I just googled on Web Expression configure sftp, and found this link: <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc295154%28v=expression.30%29.aspx> Someone needs to go there and check those three users' configurations. mark -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
