Good. We'll test further and make that an official update soon.

Ah, it is supported now, but sftp is not enabled by default. This is the
template fragment:

/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/ssh/sshd_config/50SubsystemSftp

{
# Uncomment if you want to enable sftp
#Subsystem      sftp    /usr/libexec/sftp-server
#MaxStartups 10:30:60
}

Copy it to /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/ssh/sshd_config/50SubsystemSftp
and remove the comments. Run "/sbin/e-smith/signal-event remoteaccess-update"
to see if that does the trick.

That template should probably check whether this subsystem is enabled
for the sshd service, defaulting to "disabled".

No, sftp is disabled on the server - see above.
