It appears to fail well before it even spawns sftp.

But now, for the last 20 minutes at least. It's happily run every single time. Interactive and batch. Nothing has changed (that we know of!)

We will continue to monitor of course.

That should give you a bunch of output. Of course it will probably break
your expect script.

Yes using DNS but DNS reports only one IP address for them.

It doesn't even attempt to connect though. NO log output, appears the
shell script doesn't even run. Completes in < 1 second in that case.

If you are going by DNS, are their multiple IP address, one works

and one does not? They could be round robin-ing their IP address(s)
and you are only setup on one server. Just a shot in the dark.

Have you talked to this vendor? You seriously have no idea. :-) :-)
We're lucky they got this far!!

To directly answer your question, they don't support key exchange.
UerrID and password only.

The odd part is that it either works flawlessly or appears not to even
make an attempt.
