I have the following lines in my /etc/ssh/sshd_config: Subsystem sftp /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server Match user USERNAME ForceCommand internal-sftp But when I try to connect via sftp, i get the error: error: subsystem: cannot stat /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server: No such file or directory subsystem request for sftp failed, subsystem not found However, the file /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server does exist and https://serverfault.com/questions/381535/ssh-cannot-start-sftp-server-when-trying-to-force-internal-sftp/526604 seems to be working fine. If I don't try and force the connection to be sftp, then I can ssh in just fine, so the ssh daemon seems to be handling things correctly, but forcing sftp is not. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've tried searching for answers but all the solutions i've found seem to be about the sftp-server not being in the correct place. For me though, the file is definitely there. I'm using CentOS 6, and OpenSSH 5.3p1. Thanks for any help. ssh sftp share|improve this question edited Feb 9 at 12:15 asked Apr 20 '12 at 13:29 Jai Redden 2814 Does SFTP work when the command isn't forced? –mgorven Apr 23 '12 at 6:09 Yes, sftp works fine when it isn't forced. In that case i get the following message in my /var/log/secure when connecting via sftp: sshd[3569]: subsystem request for sftp –Jai Redden Apr 23 '12 at 12:21 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 7 down vote accepted Do you use "ChrootDirectory"? That would explain "file not found" if your "/usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server" exist. You should use "Subsystem sftp internal-sftp" instead (or give up on Chroot) share|improve this answer edited Nov 17 '13 at 23:23 answered Jul 26 '13 at 17:54 Matija Nalis 1,413723 That should be Subsystem sftp internal-sftp –xe

In my installation it is here: /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server From your log info, you are looking here: /usr/libexec/sftp-server If you are simply looking in the wrong place, you can update your sshd_config to point to the correct location. If the binary is actually missing, you can try re-installing the RPM. The sftp-server binary should be in the openssh-server rpm. Let me know what you find.
