I do experience the same exact symptoms. However, I can open a
file transfer session to a linux box.
Our Solaris box runs Solaris 2.7. I do not see any error message
in the logging file of ssh2d. I have not tried yet to run it in debug mode.

Subject: Windows Client SFTP
We've been migrating users up to SSH 2.1 after the recent license change
for universities. I have one user who cannot initiate an sftp session
from his Windows NT platform (SSHWinSecureShell-21).
The user can connect for a normal SSH to a Solaris 2.6 machine running
SSH Secure Shell 2.1.0 (non-commercial version), using password for
authentication. But when he tries to open a file transfer session, the
connection immediately closes. The logs on the remote server do not
show anything out of the ordinary. We can connect as a different user
and have success with sftp from that same NT platform. If he moves to
another NT machine, he still can't initiate sftp. He CAN, however, sit
on a Sun machine and successfully use command-line sftp.
The Suns on the network run NIS+ for logins, automounts of home
directories and such. The user has tried connecting on a number of the
platforms, including the host which has his home directory. Before he
tried the command-line sftp, he didn't even have a .ssh2 directory in
his home directory; neither did the successful sftp test account.
Any ideas where to look for the culprit?
