SFTP If you have access to a server using a secure shell ( SSH2), most probably sftp-server is also installed and allows you to browse the server with Cyberduck or Mountain Duck.With support for strong ciphers, public key and two factor authentication.

The New Connection Button
To begin, click the Open Connection button on the toolbar. You'll need to enter in a few detailsto get connected:
- Protocol: We recommend you use SFTP.
- Username: The user name for your FTP server.
Click the Connect button to connect to your account.
Here's an example of what the connection to your ExaVault account would look like:

bobsmith
- Password: (You should never post your password online!)
You should know that Cyberduck supports other transfer protocols,but SFTP is what we at ExaVault recommend.
Unknown Host Prompts
The first time that you log on to an SFTP server, Cyberduck will prompt you about about an unknown host key. This prompt is part of the SSH protocol – and it's just Cyberduck telling you that it doesn't know anything about the server. Cyberduck keeps a list of “known” (and therefore trusted)servers.
Click the 'Always' checkbox and then click the 'Allow' button so that your ExaVault account is trusted by Cyberduck.
You'll know you are connected when you see a list of files in the Cyberduck Browser window.
Transferring Files and Using the Browser Window
The Browser window is the main part of the application window in Cyberduck. The folders and filesthat you see in the Browser window can be thought of as a Finder (Mac) or Explorer (PC) window for your FTP server. Therefore,transferring files with Cyberduck simply involves dragging files from one window to another. Vectoraster 7 3 1.
