in reply to Downloading files from SFTP in windows

Net::SFTP appears to use the getservbyname function to map a service name and protocol ("ssh", "tcp") to a port (22). The getservbyname function looks up the service name in the system's services file.

On Unix this is typically /etc/services. On Windows, it's typically C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\services. Make sure that this file exists, and "ssh" is listed correctly.
