NAME¶
gesftpserver - Green End SFTP Server
SYNOPSIS¶
/usr/lib/gesftpserver [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION¶
gesftpserver implements the SFTP protocol. It is normally run as an SSH
subsystem but can be run in other contexts if necessary.
CONFIGURING OPENSSH¶
By default, OpenSSH will use its native SFTP server in response to requests for
the SFTP subsystem. To use gesftpserver instead, add a suitable
Subsystem command to
sshd_config (and remove the existing one if
present). For example:
Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/gesftpserver
