We have been using pgp for sending files from AIX in the past. However, in our production environment we can not install freeware.

Is there a vendor of PGP for AIX that provides support? Or will SFTP provide the same functions? If so, can someone point us to a document on how to implement this using the same keys we use for PGP?

Thanks!

Hello,
which Problem are you trying to solve?
SFTP as part of openssh is also Freeware, which you can't install on your Production environment, If I understood it right?

With PGP you encrypt your files.
How are they transferred? Via FTP?

SFTP transfers Files/Data securely over a network using mechanisms from ssh (Openssh).
To transfer Files securely I would prefer using SFTP.

Cheers,
