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 sftp-server.  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 sftp-server.  The pos‐
              sible values are: SILENT, QUIET, FATAL, ERROR, INFO, VERBOSE,
              DEBUG, DEBUG1, DEBUG2, and DEBUG3.  INFO and VERBOSE log transac‐
              tions 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.
      sftp(1), ssh(1), sshd_config(5), sshd(8)
