Kevin, The secure FTP server runs as a subsystem of the SSH package. Incoming connections are madeto port 22, just like the standard ssh connections to your sshd server. Incoming sftp connections will be handled automatically by the openssh server; connecting clients will receive an ftp interface window when they connect, provided they have access permissions to do so. If you need to control the functionality of the FTP server portion of the openssh program, you will need to edit the config files. You might want to take a look at your sshd_config file and check the very end of it. You should see the sftp server specified as a default subsystem. Make sure it's enabled. For further assistance, I would take a look at the man pages for openssh and its associated config files. They should point you in the right direction. Hope this helps!

Hi there, I'm trying to use WinSCP to administer my new install of TSL 2.2. I installed the OpenSSH packages and can use PuTTY, and can browse using SCP, but SFTP doesn't seem to be running - nor do I know how to start it. Everything I've read says it should be started with sshd, yet it either isn't running or is running on a port I'm not sure of. I'm definitely new to this distribution and not very skilled in Linux overall so please excuse this question if it's idiotic... I checked the last line of sshd_config and the last line "subsystem stftp .. etc" is NOT commented out. How can I know the status of sftp-server, and how can I make it run? Thank you for your help!
