SFTP Failed to create session keys.

Hi,

I am getting the following from SmartFTP Pro client on Windows 2003 to Solaris 10 server.
FTP over SSH.
I am able to connect with Filezilla using same credentials.
Please advise.

Hi

Thanks for the suggestion. I've tried this hotfix but it didn't resolve the issue.

Out of interest, this issue only seems to affect installs on Server 2003.

Do you have any other ideas?

Thanks
Lee

We will provide a new version within the next few days.

The new build is available now. Please give it a try: https://www.smartftp.com/download/

We have confirmed the hotfix is installed and updated the SmartFTP client to 4.0.1210 but still not working.
Please advise.
