Providing dummy command like pwd before rename also is not making the rename to work.It is throwing the same error as file in use.
 
When i tried few more servers,one of the server that worked was WinSSHd(http://www.bitvise.com/winsshd) .I couldnt trace a version history of how the server fixed this.
 
Is there a way by changing libcurl to do a force close of the file followed by executing the post quote command?
