Below is step-by-step installation SSH (and SFTP) server on Windows NT Based (Windows 2000 Server). It’s easy to follow and I bet you can do it by your self.

• Login as Administrator
• Create windows user with name ftp_user (and specified the password)
• Go to http://sshwindows.sourceforge.net/download/ download Binary Installer Release then Extract and Install Openssh server.
• Open command prompt and type:

  cd C:\PROGRA~1\OpenSSH\bin
  mkgroup -l >> ..\etc\group
  mkpasswd -l -u ftp_user >> ..\etc\passwd

• Open Regedit, Find key My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2\/home
  change native value with c:\sftphome
• Create folder c:\sftphome
• Create folder c:\sftphome\ftp_user and make sure user ftp_user has Full Control
• Start the OpenSSH server. Open command prompt and type:

  net start opensshd

• Make sure SSH server is running, type:

  netstat -an

  and look for 0.0.0.0:22 on Local Address

• Test connection by using putty for ssh or filezilla for sftp. Credentials to use:

Username: ftp_user (or anything you choose)
Password: user’s pass
Host (IP Address): server’s IP Address
Port: 22
