Using FileZilla Pro Enterprise Server with CUCM

[galvinj-dtra]

Has anybody used FileZilla Pro Enterprise Server as an SFTP server for CUCM?  We've seen that the Solarwinds SFTP server has issues with CUCM, and would like to avoid getting another SFTP server that is incompatible.

Thanks

As a side note, keep in mind that Cisco PCD is the only official Cisco-tested and supported SFTP server option, mentioned here:

Even if you deployed PCD purely for SFTP functionality alone, that's what many do in order to avoid odd behaviors with 3rd party SFTP software that you're referencing.  I've recently seen where some 3rd party SFTP servers are returning duplicate COP file names and  upgrade filenames and preventing our products from initiating the download/installation because it's not the file it originally requested.

There was a tech note example created for how to use PCD for SFTP operations: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/cloud-systems-management/prime-collaboration/215541-use-prime-collaboration-deployment-as-a.html

PCD downloads are within the CUCM software software sections.  Example for 15.x PCD : https://software.cisco.com/download/home/286331940/type/286287305/release/15SU2

I normally use FreeFTPd

The OpenSSH server on almost any *nix distribution will work. I have also used OpenSSH for windows successfully. That may be called something else now.
