sftp client was cross-compiled for a PPC board while sftp-server is running onto an Ubuntu Linux / x86 arch. \ After login sftp gets out immediately, however if I specify a batch file it works. Finally I found very annoying having to tell to sftp command where is the remote sftp-server binary! ~ # sftp -S /usr/bin/dbclient -s /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server [EMAIL PROTECTED] Connecting to 172.16.119.6...
