SFTP-SERVER(8)							SFTP-SERVER(8)

NAME
       sftp-server - SFTP server subsystem

SYNOPSIS
       sftp-server [-f log_facility] [-l log_level]

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
       intended	 to  be	 called directly, but from sshd(8) using the Subsystem
       option.

       Command-line flags to sftp-server should be specified in the  Subsystem
       declaration.  See sshd_config(5) for more information.

       Valid options are:

       -f log_facility
	      Specifies	 the  facility code that is used when logging messages
	      from .  The possible values are:	DAEMON,	 USER,	AUTH,  LOCAL0,
	      LOCAL1,  LOCAL2,	LOCAL3,	 LOCAL4,  LOCAL5, LOCAL6, LOCAL7.  The
	      default is AUTH.

       -l log_level
	      Specifies which messages will be logged by .  The possible  val-
	      ues  are:	 QUIET,	 FATAL,	 ERROR,	 INFO, VERBOSE, DEBUG, DEBUG1,
	      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.
