+SFTP-SERVER(8) OpenBSD System Manager's Manual SFTP-SERVER(8)
+
+NAME
+ sftp-server - SFTP server subsystem
+
+SYNOPSIS
+ sftp-server [-ehR] [-f log_facility] [-l log_level] [-u umask]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ sftp-server is a program that speaks the server side of SFTP protocol to
+ stdout and expects client requests from stdin. sftp-server is not in-
+ tended to be called directly, but from sshd(8) using the Subsystem op-
+ tion.
+
+ Command-line flags to sftp-server should be specified in the Subsystem
+ declaration. See sshd_config(5) for more information.
+
+ Valid options are:
+
+ -e Causes sftp-server to print logging information to stderr instead
+ of syslog for debugging.
+
+ -f log_facility
+ Specifies the facility code that is used when logging messages
+ from sftp-server. The possible values are: DAEMON, USER, AUTH,
+ LOCAL0, LOCAL1, LOCAL2, LOCAL3, LOCAL4, LOCAL5, LOCAL6, LOCAL7.
+ The default is AUTH.
+
+ -h Displays sftp-server usage information.
+
+ -l log_level
+ Specifies which messages will be logged by sftp-server. The pos-
+ sible values are: QUIET, FATAL, ERROR, INFO, VERBOSE, DEBUG, DE-
+ BUG1, DEBUG2, and DEBUG3. INFO and VERBOSE log transactions that
+ sftp-server performs on behalf of the client. DEBUG and DEBUG1
+ are equivalent. DEBUG2 and DEBUG3 each specify higher levels of
+ debugging output. The default is ERROR.
+
+ -R Places this instance of sftp-server into a read-only mode. At-
+ tempts to open files for writing, as well as other operations
+ that change the state of the filesystem, will be denied.
+
+ -u umask
+ Sets an explicit umask(2) to be applied to newly-created files
+ and directories, instead of the user's default mask.
+
+ For logging to work, sftp-server must be able to access /dev/log. Use of
+ sftp-server in a chroot configuration therefore requires that syslogd(8)
+ establish a logging socket inside the chroot directory.
