Thanks.  That was the clue.  The following all work, connecting to my 
cygwin home directory on the server:

ssh dell03
sftp dell03
lftp sftp://dell03

but curl requires a more explicit syntax: curl sftp://cdr@dell03

I had tried curl -u cdr, but that asks for a password.  Since I want to 
use curl in a script, I did not want to have to enter a password.
I did not think of trying a different syntax until reading your suggestion.
