I've been trying to get WinSCP to work with the CentOS distribution but it doesn't work

I have openssh installed but there is still something missing to get it to work.

Does anyone know what you have to install to get WinSCP to work?

I've not used CentOS, but SCP & SFTP work fine on Debian Sarge.

What settings are you using in WinSCP? What sort of error are you getting? Can it even establish a connection?

If not check all the proper services are started (probably just sshd), and make sure your firewall isn't blocking you.

Ok, I figured it out.

I was using the host.linode.com username login.

It worked when I went directly to the IP number and logged in as root.

Thanks.
