>Please let me know if you succeed.

I added this to my /etc/suauth:
root:myusername:NOPASS

Which allows me to su to root without and password typing but a real TTY is still a requirement :(

$ su
su: must be run from a terminal

I don't know, I don't use SU. If it is possible, than you can try to execute SU via console (new feature of WinSCP 2.2). Please let me know if you succeed.

Second, so SCP doesn't support file resumes? If so, that is a major flaw in the SCP protocol :( Maybe it is possible to emulate the resume behaviour by executing a command line ...

Sure, I may. Someday :-)

It does not.

Second, so SCP doesn't support file resumes? If so, that is a major flaw in the SCP protocol :( Maybe it is possible to emulate the resume behaviour by executing a command line like `cut file|tail -c "the remaining bytes"` and save the output from stdout to the file? I don't know if that is possible with SCP but if it is, then SCP doesn't need to know if we are trying to resume a file or not.

to SU to another user when im connected.

I've tried this, but at least on servers I have access to, SU requires TTY in standard input, which is not case of WinSCP.

Secord, if or when is resume possible in WinSCP ?
SCP for console works fine, why not put it on
WinSCP ?

Which console SCP supports resuming? AFAIK, SCP does not support resuming at all!
