Does the server component allow for authentication to be validated against a DB?

I would seriously consider buying this if the server component supported SFTP, any plans on adding SFTP support to the server?

one more thing, does it work with Kylix or Free Pascal?

The TScSSHServer component does not have any direct relation to databases. You should to use Data Access components for authentication with a database server.
For example, for connection with MySQL server you can use the TMyConnection component along with TMySSHIOHandler that are a part of MySQL Data Access Components (MyDAC).

We do not plan to support SFTP in the near future. Also it is possible that we will support Kylix, but we do not plan to support Free Pascal.

I hope you guys change your mind about SFTP as it's one of the biggest reasons to use SSH because while it's FTP like it works all over port 22 and does not have the dynamic port issues of regular ftp or ftp over SSL.

Add SFTP support to the server and Kylix support and you will have me as a customer.

We will consider possibility to support SFTP.

Sweet, I will for sure purchase, it would have to work on Kylix though.

We are considering possibility to support Kylix. But it is unlikely that we will support it during nearest several months.
