i found the following artical "http://forum.rebex.net/questions/242/getlist-throws-an-established-connection-was-aborted-by-the-software-in-your-host-machine-exceptionm" but how to change passive mode for SFTP.

but not sure this will help me in my problem or not. many thanks.

Hello, the article you found is not related to SFTP. It's related to FTP protocol's data connection, but there is no such concept in SFTP.

The error you got indicates that the connection to the server was established, but it failed even before actual SSH negotiation took place. Are you able to connect to the server at 62.254.226.169:22 using WinSCP or other SFTP/SSH client?

yes i can connect to sftp using WinSCP and even test application of Rebex and even able to delete the file also.. using that app.

I guess this is caused by some firewall/antivirus software.

MerlinN might be right. If you are indeed able to connect from one application (using Rebex SFTP) but unable to connect using another application (using Rebex SFTP as well), even though both actually connect to the same server using the same DLLs, a firewall check is definitely recommended.

If you recompile the WinFormClient sample (the sample source code comes with Rebex SFTP package), are you able to connect with that?

This was most likely a local firewall configuration issue - see the comments above for details.
