    Im having a trouble finding a free for commercial use SFTP server that i can use with my development.

    I found freeFTPd but there are a few issues with it that im not willing to live with.

    Any help would be great.

    Do Filezilla server or vsftpd do SFTP?

    You could also just use the one available with openSSH

    Turns out OpenSSH is an SFTP server.

    OpenSSH works perfectly for me but it doesnt seem to work with Windows 7 or Server 2008.

    It installs and i can configure it but the service will just not start.

    Has anyone else used this and successfully got it working on 7 or 2008.

    I ended up buying the SFTP components from www.weonlydo.com and writing my own SFTP, FTPS and FTP server.

    I decided to put it up online for others to use free for private use.
    You can download it here http://windsftp.weebly.com

    It probably needs more work but if you want it its there.

    Depends on how many emails you need to send each day, but SendGrid works well for me and the free version allows you to send 200 each day. Adds some nice tracking features too (did the email arrive, was it opened etc)
