Hi there,
Since scp now defaults to using the SFTP protocol which is not built in
to dropbear, I thought I'd configure my platform to enable
OPENSSH_SFTP_SERVER, but I ran into a 'gotcha'. The server gets
installed as "/usr/sbin/sftp-server" (and `--libexecdir` is configured
as "/usr/sbin"), but dropbear looks for it at "/usr/libexec/sftp-server".
The path to the sftp-server can be set in dropbear by defining the
`SFTPSERVER_PATH` macro in "localoptions.h" file (constructed by
"rules/dropbear.make"). That is not currently done, but is easy enough
to add. I was wondering whether it should be made configurable by a new
option in "rules/dropbear.in" or not (using "/usr/sbin/sftp-server" as
the default value).
