Hi all,
I'm having problems with a chrooted sftp set up. I can connect with
the psftp program from the Putty toolkit, but not with the standard
sftp utility.
OpenSSH is the same on the client and server:
OpenSSH_5.1p1Debian-5ubuntu1, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007
My server configuration is as follows:
sshd_config contains (among other things):
Those "other things" could well be the source of the problem, since
Match works first-match per config directive.

Connecting with psftp works, here is the sshd log:

And the client log:

No, it has the same problem with sftp but falls back to using a shell,
which works:
Opened channel for session
Primary command failed; attempting fallback
Started a shell/command
However, connecting with sftp(1) doesn't, see the two logs here:
http://www.bluebottle.net.au/sftp-sshd.txt
http://www.bluebottle.net.au/sftp-sftp.txt
I'm not quite sure why this isn't working, is sftp failing to send a
needed command?
No, your server config is probably broken:
subsystem request for sftp
subsystem: cannot stat /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server: No such file or
directory
however since you've trimmed the server logs you've removed the parts
that would have shown what Match did, so I have no idea what happened.
Please either post your entire config (or reduce your config to a subset
that you are willing to post), repeat the test with that config (use
sshd -f reduced_config if you don't use your real config) and show the
entire log.

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
