VB/Com Method timeout with upload
Firstly... thank you up front for any help you may be able to provide!
WinSCP.exe verion = 5.5.0.3839
Language = VB6/Com
Issue:
I am not able to sucessfully connect and upload a file to a remote SFTP server using VB/Com.
Remote connection requirement has specific port number (10022), but trying to apply the port into the VB/com parameters has not sucessfully worked thus far.
Desired resolution:
Ability to compose vb/com parms to sucessfully connect to sftp server with a specific port
Context:
When I manually connect via WinSCP.exe I can connect to the remote server - no issues
Parms used:
File Protocol = SFTP
Host name = <ipaddress>
Port number = 10022
User name = <username>
Password = <password>
sshHostKey = <hostkey saved in ini>
Using VB/Com:
1. Adding ":port" to host name - Get response - Error: Host "ipaddress:10022" does not exist. This response is practially immediate.
2. Do not add ":port" to hostname - Get response - Error: Network Error: Connection to "ipaddress" timed out. This takes several seconds to return back with the response.
3. Adding any prefix to the ipaddress ie "ftp://ipaddress" also fails (probably as expected) with error that host does not exist
