This is **not** the 'Received message too long 458961005"' error. After checking everything, I believe that I've found the culprit. # grep sftp /etc/ssh/sshd_config Subsystem sftp /usr/lib64/ssh/sftp-server ..but /usr/lib64/ssh/sftp-server didn't exist. After copying /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server to /usr/lib64/ssh/sftp-server, the problem was solved. Thanks, --Serge Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install openSUSE 12.1 x86-64 using a DVD 2. Create users, Enable ssh 3. sftp user@this 4. sftp authenticates and quits Details: this is a fresh box where openSUSE 12.1-beta1 x86-64 was installed when it was available and yesterday upgraded to openSUSE 12.1 x86-64 using a DVD. This (the beta1 inheritance?) could be related to the problem. Please check a clean install (I don't have a box or time to check this). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
