I am on a roll i guess. :/

I tried logging into SFTP, did that successfully.
Tried copying over a small file and i kept getting a permission error.
Works with regular FTP and WebDav.

This is using Transmit 4.4.

FTP LOG

Tried Filezilla for Mac. I get the same error but it transfers correctly afgter asking to overwrite the file, which by the way wasnt there before. Logs below.
--------
Command: put "/Users/pcuser/Desktop/sdjkfng.txt" "sdjkfng.txt"
Error: /user/Test/sdjkfng.txt: open for write: permission denied
Error: File transfer failed

CyberDuck is only one that works perfect on Mac. No errors.

As there are several sftp protocol versions and some sftp clients do not support all of them or use specific settings, I am not surprised by your post.

Need to search if Transmit client requires some custom settings with sftp module.
