How can I explicitely set the SFTP server port number?
Show older comments
I am currently working on a project that involves downloading data from an SFTP server. I am using the 'sftp' function to establish the connection. However, I must modify the default port number from 22 to 20 for this specific task. Could you please help me to accomplish this?

As you mentioned, the default port number for SFTP servers is 22. To specify a different port number for the connection, you can append a colon (:) followed by the desired port number to the host. For instance, consider the following command:
s = sftp("www.example.com:20")
opens an anonymous connection to port number 20 if the server "www.example.com" is configured to provide SFTP service.
