Yes, I'm certain that I hand-edited the file, feel free to close the bug. I
_assumed_ that the example file would be correct for the installed package,
silly me.

Cheers,

[Bug 1437005] [NEW] Default sshd_config file has bad path to sftp-server. Should be /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server, not /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server

[Paul Mackinney]

Public bug reported:

Silly error, can't believe it wasn't found or reported earlier.

SFTP wasn't working, auth.log showed cannot stat /usr/libexec/openssh
/sftp-server: No such file or directory

I checked /etc/ssh/sshd_config and /usr/share/doc/openssh-
server/examples/sshd_config, which is apparently the source file. Both
had the libexec path to the file.

I ran locate openssh/sftp-server and got /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-
server

Corrected the path in the config file  all was well.
