Windows has freeSSHd installed. Logging in with ssh from Ubuntu 14.04 LTS via SSH using Windows Login credentials works fine. Logging in with SFTP also works fine.

Trying various combinations of (port is 2222):

scp -v -P 2222 [email protected]:at.exe .

fails with

Next authentication method: password
[email protected]'s password:
debug1: Authentication succeeded (password).

  • I read the suggested comment a while ago but after lots of research it made more sense to me. Thanks for pointing me back there. I have finally settled for Cygwin for my SSH / SCP on Windows as my solution.
