OK, thanks.  I've just pushed a patch to fix up the "Subsystem sftp"
line in the example sshd_config file, too.

** Changed in: openssh (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Fix Committed

** Summary changed:

- Default sshd_config file has bad path to sftp-server. Should be /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server, not /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server
+ Example sshd_config file has bad path to sftp-server. Should be /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server, not /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server

** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #691004
   http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=691004

** Also affects: openssh (Debian) via

  Example sshd_config file has bad path to sftp-server. Should be

Bug description:
  Silly error, can't believe it wasn't found or reported earlier.

  SFTP wasn't working, auth.log showed "cannot stat /usr/libexec/openssh
  /sftp-server: No such file or directory"

  I checked /etc/ssh/sshd_config and /usr/share/doc/openssh-
  server/examples/sshd_config, which is apparently the source file. Both
  had the "libexec" path to the file.

  I ran "locate openssh/sftp-server" and got "/usr/lib/openssh/sftp-
  server"

  Corrected the path in the config file & all was well.
