OpenSSH, sftp problems

[George Dimitoglou]

Hi - 

We have been fighting this issue quite some time now and a posting on
the general list some months ago did not provide any answers. So I
thought the developers may have an insight.

We are in a Tru64 4.0F environment, running C2 security and TCP
Wrappers.

We are using OpenSSH_2.5.1p2
	     OpenSSL 0.9.5 28 Feb 2000
	     Zlib 1.1.3
	     
for remote sessions and all works ok with ssh but we have many problems
with sftp.

Namely, the session ends when a user issues an 'ls' command during a
sftp session.  The following debug output may give someone a hint.


Any help would be greatly appreciated.
