I am trying to download a file via sftp but am getting the message "file
already completely downloaded." The file has not been downloaded at
all. I am able to download the file using FileZilla under Windows, and
via sftp in UNIX on the same box as curl.

OS: sunOS 5.8 Generic Patch October 2001

$ curl --version
curl 7.18.2 (sparc-sun-solaris2.8) libcurl/7.18.2 OpenSSL/0.9.8h
zlib/1.2.3 libidn/1.8 libssh2/0.18
Protocols: tftp ftp telnet dict ldap http file https ftps scp sftp
Features: IDN IPv6 Largefile NTLM SSL libz

The file I am trying to download is called
BMOCOM-SEND%ADW23735-BAIRPTING-BAIFILE-A%SFTP%POLLABLE%39fedh003ruvutcg0
01ld3rv. I am encoding the percent signs in the filename as %25 in the
url. If I don't do that, I get File Not Found.

Here is the command:

curl -v -u username:xxxxx
sftp://sftp.tradinggrid.gxs.com/BMOCOM-SEND%25ADW23735-BAIRPTING-BAIFILE
-A%25SFTP%25POLLABLE%2539fedh003ruvutcg001ld3rv -o file.txt

Here's what I get:

* About to connect() to sftp.tradinggrid.gxs.com port 22 (#0)
* Trying 204.90.130.72... connected

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
