Two programs +are included - sftp and sftpserv. When sftp is run and a host is +connected to (either by running 'sftp remotehost' or 'open remotehost' +from the sftp prompt), an ssh connection is initiated to the remote +host, and sftpserv is run. So, sftpserv must be in your path on +the remote host. Note that since sftpserv is run from ssh, no root +privileges are necessary. |
